Museveni signed as an individual, not the office.
Did Ssabassajja Mutebi too sign as an individual?

Subject: {UAH} Museveni's MoU is not decisive neither binding even under
international law
Not even under Buganda norms and law.
This is abuse of office. Museveni signed as an individual, not the office.
The instruments of Govt were not even used! He should be impeached for the
violation of Uganda's laws over and over again..
Quote
A memorandum of understanding (MoU) is a document describing a bilateral or
multilateral agreement between two or more parties. It expresses a
convergence of will between the parties, indicating an intended common line
of action. It is often used in cases where parties either do not imply a
legal commitment or in situations where the parties cannot create a legally
enforceable agreement. It is a more formal alternative to a gentlemen's
agreement.
Whether or not a document constitutes a binding contract depends only on the
presence or absence of well-defined legal elements in the text proper of the
document (the so-called "four corners"). The required elements are: offer,
consideration, intention (consensus ad idem), and acceptance. The specifics
can differ slightly depending on whether the contract is for goods (falls
under the Uniform Commercial Code [UCC]) or services (falls under the common
law of the state).
Quote
In private U.S. law, MoU is a common synonym for a letter of intent.
Quote
In international relations, MoUs fall under the broad category of treaties
and should be registered in the United Nations treaty database. In practice
and in spite of the United Nations' Legal Section insistence that
registration be done to avoid 'secret diplomacy,' MoUs are sometimes kept
confidential. As a matter of law, the title of MoU does not necessarily mean
the document is binding or not binding under international law. To determine
whether or not a particular MoU is meant to be a legally binding document
(i.e. a treaty), one needs to examine the intent of the parties as well as
the position of the signatories (e.g. Minister of Foreign Affairs vs
Minister of Environment). A careful analysis of the wording will also
clarify the exact nature of the document. The International Court of Justice
has provided some insight into the determination of the legal status of a
document in the landmark case of Qatar v. Bahrain, 1 July 1994

In Museveni's MoU, it is not decisive, neither binding. And we most Baganda
dissent. Ekirala bino bye biki mu mpisa zaffe Abaganda namateeka gaffe?
Temubuzabuuza Bantu baffe. We dissent and that is the truth. Byoya bya nswa.
