Abstract
When a judge accused of bias is allowed to rule on whether they are biased, justice risks Collapsing into contradiction. The ordeal of Rose Nalubowa — like that of Dr Kizza Besigye, Isaac Ssemakadde and Male Mabiri before her — exposes a structural flaw in Uganda’s Judiciary that forces litigants to choose between trusting a forum they distrust or abandoning their constitutional right to justice.
