The Police Chief Political Commissar (CPC) Assistant Inspector General of Police (AIGP) Ubaldo Bamunoba has cautioned Katonga regional police officers against unprofessional acts.
Bamunoba, who held the meeting at Mpigi district headquarters on Wednesday evening reminded the officers that “our strength lies in professionalism, respect for the rule of law, and the protection of human rights. Our communities must feel safe, and this means moving away from armchair policing and being intentional in our work.”
Bamunoba urged every officer to wear patriotism like a badge, to approach duties with a positive attitude, and to give special attention to vulnerable groups, especially women, children, and all Ugandans, when upholding human rights. He also urged them to exhibit the highest degree of customer care.
“Customer care at our stations, timely response to distress calls, and coordination with other security agencies and stakeholders are non-negotiable. We must remain accountable to the people we serve and actively support government programs as we move toward Vision 2040,” AIGP Bamunoba said.
As the country approaches into the election season, AIGP Bamunoba reminded the officers to ensure the process is free and fair for all Ugandans, in full alignment with the electoral roadmap. The last election Uganda held in 2o21 was marred by violence including the killing of 54 people on November 18th and 19th 2020.
