Thursday, March 27, 2025 - Lawyer Robert Asembo’s bid for the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) chairperson position has been overshadowed by his controversial past, which has come back to haunt him.
Just a day after facing the selection panel, a resurfaced
video from 2022 has reignited scrutiny over his character.
The footage captures Asembo in a heated altercation outside
a courtroom during a child upkeep case.
As he walked out, he attempted to punch a businessman
involved in the case, but the businessman dodged, leaving Asembo striking a
wall instead.
A woman, believed to be the businessman’s estranged wife,
quickly intervened.
The businessman later filed a case against Asembo, adding to
the lawyer’s legal troubles.
During his interview, Asembo struggled to shake off this
controversy.
The selection panel, led by Nelson Makanda, raised concerns
about his integrity, referencing Article 6 of the Constitution on leadership
and ethics.
One panellist questioned whether pending cases could
jeopardize his tenure if appointed.
Asembo, however, dismissed these concerns, subtly accusing
the panel of unfairly judging him.
"Given the rule of law, you should not condemn
anyone the way you are condemning me," he retorted.
Watch the video below.
You can’t imagine that the lawyer missing the shot and hitting the wall now wants to be the IEBC Chair 😂 https://t.co/ZO8AJzY9sT
