The period between 1962 and 1966, was an area of vigorous litigation in 'Uganda. There was faith' in legal' solutions to 'the struggle for political power between the Central Gbvernrrient and the subordinate govefnmdnts which were led by the Kabaka's Government. While this tradition of litigation and constitutionalism lasted, it provided a genuine chance of resolving political conflict in a candid manner. The Lwebuga legal-political tangle seeks 'to fflustrate that courts enhanced integration by serving as an important and acceptable forum through which political conflict was resolved. The study also attempts to show that competitive politics existed between the Kabaka’s Government and the Central Government, a phenomenon which enhanced open dissent in the political system of Uganda.
