(b) any act or omission by any person or authority, is inconsistent with or in contravention of a provision of this Constitution, may petition the constitutional court for a declaration to that effect, and for redress where appropriate. 5 In Ismael Serugo v. Kampala City Council, Constitutional Appeal No. 02 of 1998, the Supreme Court (Kanyeihamba, JSC) reviewed its decision in Attorney General v David Tinyefuza (supra) and stated thus: 10 15 20 25 There is a number offacets to the decision of the Supreme Court in that case.
