Chief Justice Alfonse Owiny-Dollo will on Thursday give reasons why he declined to step aside from the hearing of the presidential election petition in which former presidential candidate Robert Kyagulanyi aka Bobi Wine was challenging President Museveni's victory through the January 14 polls.
Mr Male Mabirizi, a lawyer, had filed an application in the Supreme Court seeking Chief Justice Owiny-Dollo to withdraw from hearing the presidential election petition against Mr Museveni on account of ‘conflict of interests’. 
In a ruling notice issued yesterday, the Supreme Court registrar said that Court will deliver a detailed ruling on an application for Recusal filed by Mr Male Mabirizi.
