With Violence Continuing There, Should We #VisitUganda?

Will Danish abdication prompt King Charles to step down early?
The abdication of Danish Queen Margrethe II has led to speculation about whether Britain's King Charles III might follow suit. Margrethe's decision to step down after 52 years has been praised as a sensible move for a constitutional monarchy. Charles, who became king in 2022 at the age of 73, faces questions about the length of his reign and his ability to handle royal scandals, including those involving Prince Andrew and Prince Harry. While some believe Charles might consider abdication in the future, others argue he will likely reign until his death. Public opinion on the monarchy is divided, with some polls showing declining support.

A new dawn or more of the same for Zimbabwe?
Emmerson Mnangagwa was sworn in as Zimbabwe’s president amid hopes for a new era of prosperity and peace. His inauguration followed a disputed election, which the opposition, led by Nelson Chamisa, claimed was fraudulent. Mnangagwa won with 50.8 percent of the vote, and the Constitutional Court upheld his victory. He called for unity and promised to address the country's economic challenges, while critics remain skeptical due to his past association with Robert Mugabe and the military's recent actions against protesters. International observers had mixed views on the election's fairness, and Mnangagwa's commitment to democracy and economic reform is yet to be tested.

Zambia: President Lungu ratchets up repression, declares near state of emergency
Zambian President Edgar Lungu declared a situation that may lead to a state of emergency, citing a series of fires and acts of vandalism as threats to national security and public order. The opposition United Party for National Development (UPND) leader Hakainde Hichilema is currently imprisoned on treason charges, and 48 UPND MPs are suspended, which raises questions about the timing of Lungu's declaration. Critics, including Jeffrey Smith of Vanguard Africa, view Lungu's actions as part of a troubling democratic reversal in Zambia.

Minnesota court rules police needed search warrant to track poaching suspect
A Minnesota man, Joshua Liebl, accused of poaching deer, won a court decision to suppress evidence obtained without a search warrant. The Minnesota Court of Appeals ruled that the lack of a warrant violated Liebl's constitutional rights, leading to the dismissal of charges. The case involved Conservation Officer Edward Picht, who used a GPS device to track Liebl's truck without a search warrant. The court's decision was influenced by a 2012 U.S. Supreme Court ruling that attaching a GPS device constitutes a search under the Fourth Amendment. The prosecution has until Wednesday to decide whether to seek a review by the Minnesota Supreme Court.
