KAMPALA- Uganda Police Force has on Wednesday, July 3, welcomed the appointment of four army officers to senior positions in three police directorates.

In a statement dated July 3, the Uganda Police spokesperson, CP Fred Enanga, on behalf of the Inspector General of Police appreciated the president’s decision.

“The Inspector General of Police would like to thank the President for the appointment on secondment of additional UPDF officers to the police, ”Enanga said in a statement.

Mr. Enanga further revealed that the secondment of the UPDF officers comes at a time when there’s increasing convergence of policing and military doctrines and better partnership in addressing policing concerns countrywide.
