The case in which Dr Stella Nyanzi appealed against her sacking by Makerere university resumed yesterday, Wednesday 12th June 2019 with the applicant giving the submission a head of the ruling.
Through her lawyer Isaac Ssemakadde, Dr Stella Nyanzi protests the decision of the appointment board for sacking her in her absentia without giving her a fair hearing.
Nyanzi also indicates that the appointments board unlawfully and unjustifiably acted in the contempt of the earlier decision of the staff appeal tribunal of December 3 2018.
Ssemakadde contends that the decision in dispute is wholly unfounded and inconsistent with the decision-making history of the appointment board.
Ssemakadde cited the evidence that happened behind the back of the court violating the court orders and invited court to reject defence submissions.
They want court to direct the University’s appointments board and the Vice Chancellor to implement the order of the staff tribunal, reinstate the applicant, pay all her monuments, promotion in office, payment worth Shs750million and impunity damages of Shs250 million.
Nyanzi is currently on remand on charges of Cyber harassment and offensive communication for alleging insulting president Museveni’s mother Esteri Kokundeka on Facebook.
The High court has set ruling on 16th October 2019.
