| | Sobaka News Wire: Uganda: President for Life |
| | According to the 1995 Constitution, presidents were required to resign at least three months prior to running for a third term. | | | As the amendments were implemented upon the signature of President Museveni, this situation meant that only the president knew that the law was now different than what it has been for the last ten years, until someone notified the MPs. | | | One which was viewable today was that citizens and even members of parliament did not know that the constitution had been amended until they were told by a clerk. |
