The first right detailed in article 20 of the Constitution of Uganda says that by being born you are entitled to these rights. These are fundamental human rights and they are not given by the state, but it is the duty of the state to protect these rights.
We are all born free with equal rights and dignity.
The Constitution of Uganda puts it this way:
20. Fundamental and other human rights and freedoms.
(1) Fundamental rights and freedoms of the individual are inherent and not granted by the State.
(2) The rights and freedoms of the individual and groups enshrined in this Chapter shall be respected, upheld and promoted by all organs and agencies of Government and by all persons.
