“I wish to thank His Excellency The President of Uganda/Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces and indeed the entire Army leadership for building UPDF into an all-round force anchored on the six principles of Duty, Integrity, Ethics, Honour, Courage and Loyalty,” Obua remarked.
He represented the 3rd Deputy Prime Minister and Minister Without Portfolio, Rt. Hon. Rukia Nakadama, who is currently out of the country.
In a message read by Obua, Nakadama said the Cultural Gala under the theme: “Harnessing African Unity and Security through Promotion of our rich Cultural Diversity for a Common Destiny” will equip the senior officers with additional desired skills to serve humanity.
