KAMPALA – The newly sworn-in KCCA executive director, Dr. Dorothy Kisaka has outlined seven key areas that she will focus on to deliver services in Kampala.

Dr Kisaka, whose appointment to the job was recently endorsed by Parliament’s Appointments Committee following nomination by the President said the outlined priorities cut across all directorates.

“We shall lead from the front and lead by example. We shall do what we say and avoid duplicity,” she promised in a statement.

According to Dr Kisakaa, they must fast track development of the City and achieve the goals set out in the Strategic Plan.

“We shall pursue a participatory approach with the Citizens of Uganda to nurture the stunning beauty of Kampala City. The staff cannot do it alone. Everyone ought to participate in beautifying his or her neighbourhood. It is imperative that we work together to create a City environment that City dwellers and the whole of Uganda will be proud of,” she said.

She further noted that they shall work towards minimising interruptions to development, “By building bridges that promote peace across the many stakeholders. We cannot develop the City in the midst of unending intentional interruptions. We will promote a culture that says ‘we are bigger than the differences that divide us’. The people of Kampala deserve that. We can all win.”

Additionally, Dr Kisaka said they shall serve all Kampala in its diversity and ensure that they are well catered for with basic amenities both in dwelling and trading spaces.

“Kampala is a melting point for the 56 tribes of Uganda and this diversity must be respected and provided for,” she empasised.

She maintained that both the inner infrastructure and outer infrastructure are important therefore they shall promote the rich inherited values bequeathed by the ancestors; that is good neighbourliness, hard work, shared wealth, integrity and honesty so that we build strong communities of City dwellers.

“We shall all pledge to be good stewards of what Uganda has entrusted to us as a Technical Team. We shall not yoke with detractors of development or those who steal public property, or promote divisions that deter development, or eat the bread of laziness, or mistreat City dwellers, or in any way break the law and deter the good work of developing Uganda. We shall be trustworthy stewards of this great trust of Kampala City,”

Dr Kisaka replaces Eng. Andrew Kitaka who has been acting executive director since Jennifer Musisi resigned in 2018.

Eng. Kitaka, who has been acting ED will now return to his position as director of engineering and technical services.
