Mabirizi argues that Bobi Wine’s UCE certificate is written in the names of Kyagulanyi Ssentamu R, which is different from Kyagulanyi Robert Ssentamu on his UACE certificate.
A court process server, who was instructed to deliver summons to Kyadondo East lawmaker, Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu a.k.a Bobi Wine to answer charges of giving false information about his age has failed to get him.
On September 1, 2020, Wakiso Chief Magistrate, Esther Lydia Nakadama Mubiru, summoned Bobi Wine to appear before her court on September 16 (Wednesday) to answer charges of giving false information, obtaining registration by false pretense and uttering false documents.
The charges were opened against Kyagulanyi by lawyer Hassan Male Mabirizi, accusing him of lying to Wakiso district Electoral Commission (EC) returning officer about his age and academic credentials during the 2017 Kyadondo East parliamentary by-election.
Consequently, a court process server was instructed to serve the court summons to the presidential hopeful but in vain.
New Vision, however, has since learnt that the process server has failed to get him for the purposes of physically serving him with the same documents as required under the law.
“The process server has failed to get Bobi Wine. He went to his National Unity Platform (NUP) party offices in Kamwokya but was blocked from accessing him. He made several calls to him but he declined to answer. He sent a WhatsApp message to him but he has never replied to date,” the source which preferred anonymity said.
When contacted, Mabirizi confirmed the same but said even if Bobi Wine hides in the sea, he has to appear in court and answer the charges.
“I am going to ask court to take it that Bobi Wine has defied it if he does not appear tomorrow (Wednesday) because even if the court process server failed to get him, I am sure he read about the matter in the Newspapers and that is why he addressed a press conference over the same,” Mabirizi said.
