During the hearing and when the plaintiff had called two witnesses, Mr. Wamambe, the learned State Attorney raised two preliminary points of law. The f irst preliminary objection was that the suit is barred by Statute in that the action was brought beyond 3 years from the time the cause of action arose contrary to S. 2(2) of the Civil Procedure (Limitation Act) because the cause of action arose in 1988 b ut the suit was on 30/01/2001 more than ten years later. He submitted that though the above act sets down exemptions in the event of a disability, which must be pleaded by the plaintiff a suit must be filed within 12 months after such disability ceases. Counsel submitted that in the instant case an exemption or disability was not pleaded. He pointed out that the contents if paragraph 3 (f) of the plaint, the plaintiff seeks to rely on does not amoun t to a disability. He contended to have been in time the suit ought to have been filed in 1990, the cause of action having arisen in 1988, counsel submitted that the plaint ought to be rejected, the suit having been filed in 2001 more than 10 years after i t ought to have been filed.

He cited the Inspector General of Police\rquote s letter dated 11.04.97, the letter of the Permanent Secretary Ministry of Internal Affairs dated 30.10.92 and that dated 22.03.2000 all of which according to him acknowledge the indebtedness of the defendant to the plaintiff.

I agree with the import Mr. Kamugisha gave to Section 22(4) of the Limitation Act which as a la ne of general application is applicable here that an acknowledgement of indebtedness by the debt}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid11023116 or or by somebody accountable. \par }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid10643961\charrsid9257177 With regard to the preliminary point that this suit is barred by the provisions of the Civil Procedure and Limitation (Miscellane ous Provisions) Act Section 3(2) of that Act limits the period within which to bring an action against the Government in contract to 3 years from the time the cause of accrued. In the instant case the cause of action is stated to have arisen in 1988 when the plaintiff supplied certain items of food staff to various departments of the Uganda Police Force though the plaintiffs sued in respect of some of the supplies in 1989 and obtained judgment no suit was filed in respect of the present claim until 2001 which is about 13 years since the cause of action accrued. This action was therefore barred by Limitation under section 3(2) of the Civil Procedure and Limitation (Miscellaneous Provision) Act. Having been barred by statute an extension of time within wh ich to file the suit could only be secured on the plaintiff pleading and showing that he was under a disability so as not to have been able to file the suit within the prescribed time as provided for under }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid10643961\charrsid11023116 Section }{\rtlch\fcs1 \ai\af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid10643961\charrsid11023116 5 }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid10643961\charrsid11023116 of}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid10643961\charrsid9257177 the above Act. From his pleadings in the plaint the plaintiff is }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid11023116 not relying on any disability. \par }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid10643961\charrsid9257177 It was submitted for the plaintiff that the defendant or his authorized agents having acknowledged his indebtedness to the plaintiff his action would not be barred by limitation. Counsel for the pl aintiff relied on Section 22(4) of the Limitation Act for this proposition. To my understanding the effect of Section 22(4) above is that a defendant acknowledges his indebtedness the cause of action is deemed to have arisen on the date of such Acknowledg ement. In }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid11023116\charrsid9257177 fact}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0 \ltrch\fcs0 \insrsid10643961\charrsid9257177 the correspondent relied on by the plaintiff as an acknowledgement of his indebtedness to the plaintiff in paragraph 3(i-ix) only the Permanent Secretary Ministry of Internal affairs letter dated 23.1.92 addressed to the General Manager co-ope rative Bank (U) Ltd Ref. C. 11583 Annexture \'930\'94 to the plaint and the letter of the Inspector General of Police Ref 3/1 dated 11/04/97 addressed to whom it ay concern and Annexture \'93H\'94 to that plaint come close to being called acknowledgement. Both are not useful to the plaintiff because if the cause of action accrued from the date they were written then the 3 years within which the plaintiff should have filed his suit had long expired before the suit was filed. Annexture \'930\'94 is not useful for the addit ional reason that it was an acknowledgement of indebtedness to M/s Kirembwe Hatcherirs Ltd but not to Sam Kirembwe T/A M/s Paquebot Printers & stationery. All in all even section 22 (4) of the Limitation Act is not available to the plaintiff.
