General Paul Lokech appointed to Deputy Inspector General of Police (IGP) and First Son Lt. Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba bouncing back as the head of the Special Forces Command (SFC) that is charged with the President’s personal security.

The last time Muhoozi was at the helm of the Force was in 2017 when he was replaced by Maj.Gen.Don Nabasa.

“Lt. Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba is appointed commandant of SFC but will also retain his appointment as senior presidential advisor handling the security issue he has been handling,” the message by Gen. Museveni read.

Maj.Gen. Paul Lokech who has, until recently, been in South Sudan on a special assignment to monitor on behalf of the guarantors of the South Sudan peace process, the assembling, screening, demobilization and integration of the armed forces of South Sudan was appointed as the new Deputy Inspector General of Police to replace Maj. Gen. Muzeeyi Sabiiti who has been sent to the army general headquarters in Mbuya for redeployment.
