The Chief Justice, Flavian Zeija, departed Entebbe this morning for Kalangala ahead of the official launch of the Judiciary’s first motor boat, a landmark initiative aimed at improving access to justice for island communities.
Justice Zeija is leading a high-level delegation of senior Judiciary officials, highlighting the significance of the project in strengthening service delivery in hard-to-reach areas.
Among those accompanying him are the Principal Judge, Jane Frances Abodo, Permanent Secretary/Secretary to the Judiciary, Pius Bigirimana, and Acting Chief Registrar, Pamella Lamunu Ocaya, alongside several judges and senior management members.
The motor boat is expected to enhance judicial outreach, improve mobility for judicial officers, and streamline the administration of justice in districts such as Kalangala, where geographical barriers have often delayed court services.
Judiciary officials emphasize that the initiative is part of broader efforts to decentralize services, ensuring that justice is accessible to all Ugandans, regardless of their location.
The official launch of the motor boat is scheduled for later today in Kalangala.
