Corruption in Ugandan courts is still a widespread problem that must be aggressively combated before the rule of law could be upheld. It is sad to see the thriving nature of corruption in the Ugandan judiciary despite the provisions of the Anti-Corruption Act. This article explore the effects of corruption on the administration of justice in Uganda. Data for the article were secondarily sourced from journal articles, technological blogs, policy briefs, statutory provisions, case laws, newspaper publications and textbooks. At the end, the article recommends for the Inspector General of Government’s office to create an independent spy network that can discover corruption in courts. More so, the provisions of the Anti-Corruption Act should be enforced without favouritism, and the Ministry of Justice should support whistleblowers policy, who should always be on ground to reveal corruption incidences. Furthermore, CCTV cameras should be effectively and efficiently deployed in various judicial offices. Finally, justice dispensation processes should be sped up in Uganda. Keywords: Administration of justice, Anti-Corruption Act, Corruption, Court, Whistleblower.
