The Chief of Personnel and Administration, Maj Gen George Igumba while presiding over the handover/takeover ceremony called upon Brig Gen Felix Kulayigye to steer the office towards greater height, given that he is known for his enthusiasm and charisma.

“Bringing back Brig Gen Kulayigye is to add flavour and vigour to what has already been provided. The dynamics have changed and the paradigm has shifted but I remain confident that you will fit in the shoes of those who have been here before you and considering that you have been in the same job before,” Maj Gen Igumba said.

Kulayigye says he is ready to serve

Brig Gen Kulayigye previously served as Defence Spokesperson between 2005 and 2013.

Maj Gen Igumba thanked Lt Col Ronald Kakurungu for having measured up to his duties as Acting Spokesperson.

“You have been able to hold fort for close to 2 months and by my standard, you have done well”, Maj Gen Igumba added.

The incoming Defence Spokesperson, Brig Gen Felix Kulayigye in his remarks, thanked the appointing authority for the trust and confidence in him for this appointment.

He equally thanked Lt Col Ronald Kakurungu for steering the office during the period he was serving in acting capacity.

Today I have officially taken over the office of Defence Spokesperson.
I commend my deputy Lt Col Ronald Kakurungu for holding down the fort. I look forward to the opportunity of serving my motherland.
The struggle continues.https://t.co/IK5hMmkUqS pic.twitter.com/7S4zH8D2XA

Brig Gen Kulayigye noted that the change in the times calls for teamwork, vigilance and maximum co-operation given that the centre of gravity for the government is the UPDF.
