#MarriageRegConf24

We have great speakers on marriage matters, procedure & cost of registration, family values, property & inheritance, etc. Uganda Registration Services Bureau

Mercy K. Kainobwisho I think that it is also important for the public to know what someone authorised to preside over a church marriage(eg a Pastor) is required to have in order to ensure that the marriage is valid. There are 'Pastors' who preside over 'church' marriages without authorisation.

Lastly, always remember that there are only five(5) types of marriage that are recognized in Uganda - Civil marriages, Islamic marriages, Church marriages, Hindu marriages, and Customary marriages. Each one of them has its requirements under the law.

Annulment is the legal process through which a marriage is declared null & void or voidable. An annulment states that the marriage was invalid from the start (in cases of null &void marriages) or became invalid due to specific conditions (in cases of voidable marriages).(Thread)

NOTE: Null and void marriages are “non existent” from the start. But voidable marriages are considered legally valid until annulled by a court. The aggrieved party must take legal action to have the marriage annulled, and until then, the marriage is considered valid (Thread👇)

In the context of marriages and legal contracts, the terms 'null and void,' 'voidable,' and 'annulment' have specific meanings and implications and must never be confused. (Thread 👇)

#UnpopularOpinion #73. This morning in a jam around kubili, a Kawundo driver squeezed through my left, I stopped & let him in. As we moved towards the first round about at Mulago, a taxi driver tried to get in in front of the Kawundo driver. I witnessed a battle of “I will enter,…

Did you know that for a Ugandan to get married outside Uganda you are required to submit a single/marrital status letter? This letter is issued by Uganda Registration Services Bureau upon submission of some critical documents. This letter confirms that you are single & have capacity to enter a marriage.

Honoured to have been invited to share thoughts on the Marriage Bill. Marriage has both social and legal connotations which must be taken care of for us to have a legislation that stands and serves our aspirations. Kudos to Stand4HerLand-UG for organizing such discourse.
