Justice Flavian Zeija has assumed the office of Chief Justice following his vetting by Parliament’s Appointments Committee, marking a significant transition in the country’s judicial leadership. Appointed by President Museveni on the advice of the Judicial Service Commission, Zeija takes over from retired Chief Justice Alfonse Owiny-Dollo, who formally handed over office on January 19, 2026, after a five-year tenure widely praised as disciplined and reform-oriented.
