A majority of citizens say that they – and their president – must obey the law, as well as pay taxes and abide by court decisions. But they cite significant obstacles to accessing court services, including long delays, complex processes, high costs, and difficulty in obtaining legal counsel.
Most Ugandans reject legal rights for homosexuals and express intolerance toward neighbors and associates in same-sex relationships.
