Five Justices of the Supreme Court have today unanimously delivered the last stroke that has broken the back of Bank of Uganda’s 5-year failed attempt to sue billionaire businessman, Dr Sudhir Ruparelia and his Meera Investments Limited (MIL) over the closed Crane Bank. Well, the Bank of Uganda had already consented that it had a bad case ― they on 15th September 2021 notified the Supreme Court of their intention to withdraw the multi-billion dispute, so today’s ruling was really about who should pay the costs, a bid the central bank again lost, adding to a pile-load of other losses…

The wheels of justice turn slowly, but grind exceedingly fine, Bank of Uganda has sadly learnt, albeit too late. This is after pouring several billions of taxpayer money, down the pockets of several of its highly billed external law firms, in what would eventually amount to putting good money after bad money.

The Central Bank, on 20th October 2016, at the command of the then Deputy Governor, Dr Louis Kasekende and Director of Commercial Bank Supervision, Justine Bagyenda, in the exercise of their statutory powers, seized Crane Bank, at the…

Upon closure, it ceased being a financial institution under the Act (Financial Institutions Act…

Prior to 2017 and for a long time, everyone knew Bank of Uganda Governor, Prof. Emmanuel Tumusiime Mutebile as a no-nonsense man. The tough-talking Mutebile, together with her iron-lady Executive Director Bank Supervision, Justine Bagyenda had what seemed like a good game going on. So infallible was Bank of Uganda at the time that when it closed National Bank of Commerce on 27th September 2012 and Global Trust Bank on 25th July 2014 the unknowing public was in deep support. Then on 20th October 2016, BoU placed Crane Bank, the third-largest bank at the time under statutory management, then went…
