The Minister says that it is essential to prioritize the mother’s rights and the child’s well-being, as the law emphasizes the importance of a minor receiving love and care from both parents.
“Additionally, ensure you reach an understanding with all mothers of late Hon. Segirinya’s children before taking any further action,” warns the Minister.
