Buganda Road Magistrate’s court is taking a break after Makerere University research fellow Dr Stella Nyanzi’s lead lawyer Mr Nicholas Opiyo seeks to address some confidential matters to the Chief Magistrate James Ereemye, from the chambers before his client (Nyanzi) can proceed to take plea.
Dr Nyanzi was on Monday driven from Kira Divisional Police Headquarters to Buganda Road Magistrate’s Court in a convoy of security cars.
Nyanzi was arrested on Friday last week by plain clothed security operatives and is still detained at Kira division police station.
Nyanzi in different face book posts attacked the education Minister over her statements that government does not have money to buy sanitary pads for school going girls and her position against the transportation of children on boda-bodas which she said puts children’s lives at risk.
Nyanzi has since been suspended from Makerere University over her social media utterances. She is expected to appear before the appointments board for disciplinary action to be taken against her.
