On Friday, Internal Affairs Minister, Maj. Gen. RTD. Kahinda Otafiire confirmed promotions of 1638 police officers.
Our analysis, however, shows that while other Directorates and Units had a fair share in the latest promotion, Regional Police Spokespersons are all smiles.
A scan through the list revealed promotion of 18 Regional PROs, including officers attached to the office of the Police Spokesperson, SCP Fred Enanga.
These are:
SP to SSP
- SSP NANDAWULA DIANA – BUSOGA EAST
- SSP ANGUCIA JOSEPHINE – WEST NILE
- SSP TUMUSIIME MARCIAL – G. BUSHENYI
ASP to SP
- SP KAWALA RACHEAL – Wamala
- SP TUMUSHIIME NELSON- KASESE
- SP TWESIGE VICENT PRO RWENZORI WEST
- SP BUTOTO HELLEN – SEZIBWA REGION
- SP MUBI JAMES – JINJA
- SP FREDMARK CHESANG – SIIPI REGION
- SP KASASIIRA SAMSON – RWIZI REGION.
- SP HAKIIZA JULIUS – ALBERTINE
- SP DRAGUDU IGNATIUS – NORTH WEST NILE
- SP NANKINGA MARY – SOCIAL MEDIA
- SP TAITIKA ROGERS – Mbale
- SP ALASO IMMACULATE – PRO BUKEDI NORTH
- SP Lydia Tumushabe – Katonga
AIP to IP
- IP LONGOLE MIKE (Mt. Moroto)
- IP KITAGENDA SADIQ (PRO, Pol. headquarters)
In the last promotion, Mohamed Nsubuga, the Ag PRO Masaka was promoted to the rank of SP from ASP. Others promoted in that cohort were Henrieta Namande (PRO staff officer), Gregory Ageca (PRO, East Kyoga) and Patrick Okema (PRO, North Kyoga).
The promoted officers attribute the promotion to their senior, SCP Enanga (for the recommendation).
In the next set of promotions, that of ASP Luke Owoyesigyire, the Deputy Kampala Metropolitan Police Spokesperson, will be inevitable.
