The High Court in Kampala has ruled that the case challenging the election of Sheikh Shaban Ramathan Mubaje as M***i of Uganda cannot proceed until all 45 respondents, including Mubaje, his deputies, and members of the electoral college, are properly served.

Presiding over the matter on Monday, Civil Division Judge Emmanuel Baguma found that the petitioners had not effectively served the respondents. He ordered that service be completed by April 16, 2025, ahead of the next hearing scheduled for April 28, 2025.

The case was filed by a group of aggrieved Sunni Muslims, led by Swaibu Nsimbe, Twayibu Byansi, Musa Kalokora, and Musa Kasakya, who argue that Mubaje is ineligible for another term as M***i.
They contend that he has exceeded the mandatory retirement age of 70 years, as stipulated in the old Uganda Muslim Supreme Council (UMSC) Constitution. Additionally, they accuse him of mismanaging Muslim property and lacking the transparency required for the office.

However, the UMSC, through its lawyers led by Musa Kabega, argues that the case is a religious matter that should be resolved internally. The council insists that the Majlis Al-Ulama, the religious organ that endorsed Mubaje’s election, does not exercise quasi-judicial functions and is therefore not subject to judicial review. It further asserts that the petitioners lack the authority to challenge the election since they hold no vested interest in the M***i’s position.

Mubaje, who has led Uganda’s Muslim community since 2000, turned 70 on March 12, 2025. Despite this, he was sworn in for another term, a move the petitioners claim is unconstitutional. They seek a court declaration that his re-election is illegal and an order barring him from serving another term.

One of the petitioners, Musa Kasakya, argues that Mubaje’s continued leadership violates the UMSC Constitution and undermines good governance. “Muslims in Uganda have the right to have a M***i elected in accordance with the constitution. Without transparency and accountability, trust will be lacking between the institution and those it governs,” he states in his affidavit.

In contrast, a nationwide paper advocating for Mubaje’s continued leadership cites his achievements and argues that his tenure should be extended to 75 years, as permitted by the revised 2022 UMSC Constitution. The document notes that while the previous constitution set the retirement age at 70, the amendment provides for an extension to 75 under Article 5(5)(b). It also highlights Mubaje’s contributions to strengthening the UMSC and maintaining stability within the Muslim community.

The proposed legislation, which received a thumbs-up from the Committee on Education in November 2024, mandates that all teachers in Uganda must hold a bachelor’s degrees and obtain professional licenses before practicing.
However, this requirement could create more problems than it solves in Uganda’s education system. The education abstracts by the ministry of Education and Sports show that majority of primary school teachers (66 per cent) are Grade III, and such would be expected to upgrade to meet the new standards.
The financial burden on teachers would be staggering. Consider this: primary school teachers currently earn a modest Shs 540,000 monthly in government schools, with private school teachers often earning even much less.
Yet, the new requirements would force them to pursue a bachelor’s degree costing Shs 1,000,000 per term. This mathematics simply doesn’t add up for educators already struggling to make ends meet.
The government’s vision for higher qualifications, while admirable, overlooks a crucial reality: many current teachers may find themselves unable to afford these mandatory degree programs or locate flexible learning opportunities that accommodate their teaching schedules.
Without substantial government support through scholarships or grants, we risk losing experienced educators who have dedicated their lives to shaping young minds. Perhaps most concerning is the potential domino effect on our students.
As schools scramble to comply with these new standards, we face a looming teacher shortage, particularly in rural areas. The harsh reality is that many current primary teachers don’t meet the new bachelor’s degree requirements.
This shortfall could lead to overcrowded classrooms and diminished learning outcomes, directly contradicting the bill’s intended purpose. The financial implications extend beyond individual teachers to strain government resources.
The legislation would require significant public funding to support teachers pursuing higher education, not to mention the inevitable salary increases needed to retain newly qualified educators. In our current economic climate, can we truly afford such extensive commitments?
There’s also a concerning paradox at play: by pushing teachers to obtain higher qualifications while maintaining low salaries, we risk driving them away from the profession entirely.
Some may abandon teaching for better-paying opportunities, while others might resort to splitting their time between teaching and other income-generating activities, ultimately compromising educational quality.
The solution isn’t to abandon the pursuit of higher educational standards but to implement them thoughtfully. The government should consider adopting a phased implementation strategy that includes financial assistance for practicing teachers’ professional development.
This approach would allow for a more sustainable transition while maintaining educational stability. The success of this bill hinges on careful implementation, robust support for current teachers, and effective measures to address equity challenges.
Without these elements, we risk creating an educational crisis that could take years to resolve. For the stability of our education system, policymakers should reconsider their approach.
We need a more balanced solution that elevates educational standards while protecting the dedicated teachers who form the backbone of our primary education system.
