Mw. Nume,
your interpretation is correct.
The proposals of our honorables are getting more and more ridiculous. Why should we tamper with the constitution just to accomodate a president who has already had 4 terms ? We have been told that the reason they want to change Article 105 is because the incumbent has been a very good president, so we need to give him more terms as a present ! Are we going to change the constitution every time we have a new president depending on whether the MPs think he has been a good or bad president ? Can you believe this crap !!! And I thought a constitution is supposed to be a long-lasting document.
Kasangwawo

Mr Wambuga
It seems that term limits are to lifted to allow the first president who will win under multi-parties to rule for life. Should he die or lose a subsquent election then term limits would apply to the SECOND leader who comes in.
Is this what you read ???

A NEW proposal to amend Article 105 to lift the presidential term limits was yesterday floated before the legal and parliamentary affairs committee, writes Cyprian Musoke.
The proposal, presented by Mawokota South MP Henry Mutebi Kityo (right), is to be examined by the committee, now scrutinising the constitutional (Amendment) Bill 2005.
It proposed the exemption (from term limits) of the first elected regime after the transition to multi-party politics, but that the limits should be retained in the Constitution for the subsequent governments elected thereafter.
It was seconded by Freddie Ruhindi, Bright rwamirama and John Byabagambi. Ends
