The President also appointed Dr Michael Atingi-Ego as the new Deputy Governor, Bank of Uganda replacing Dr Louis Kasekende whose contract expired in January 2020.
He has made these announcements via his tweeter account.
By virtue of powers granted to me by the Constitution, I have appointed Mr John Musinguzi Rujoki as the new Commissioner General of @URAuganda. This appointment takes immediate effect.

More to follow.
The concern of the president about this corona pandemic is a great deal for Ugandans, so my appeal to us all is to heed to the president’s directives and save from the pandemic. The only issues are some people with personal interests beating up others, confiscating their items, imposing uncalled for curfews, using this situation for policticing. All these things should be seen as undermining the president’s struggle and good will to save Ugandans. May GOD protect you all and the entire world.
