The Political Parties Disputes Tribunal has shockingly reversed the **United Democratic Alliance (UDA) Party's** expulsion of former nominated senator Gloria Orwoba, citing procedural irregularities. This ruling creates confusion as a replacement, Consolata Nabwire Wakwabubi, was sworn into the Senate on Wednesday, August 20, the same day the tribunal made its decision.

• The Tribunal found the disciplinary proceedings against Orwoba were marred by legal procedural lapses.
• Consolata Nabwire Wakwabubi was officially gazetted by the IEBC on August 15 and sworn in by Speaker Amason Kingi.
• Orwoba alleged that all stakeholders, including the IEBC and Senate, were aware of the ruling schedule but proceeded with the swearing-in regardless.
