“Thank you for making UPDF (Uganda Peoples’ Defence Forces) proud and raising the Uganda flag high.” Said Gen. Elwelu.

Gen. Elwelu congratulated Brig Gen Otto upon his new appointment but also noted that the UPDF appointed him because of his experience. He pledged to support him.

“You have not lobbied for this appointment. It’s your competence and experience UPDF leadership based on, to appoint you. We shall support you to succeed.” The Gen. Elwelu said. He further noted that, Brig Gen Otto has been deployed with experienced commanders and principle staff officers under his command that will make him succeed. He only urged them to work as a team.

He encouraged Brig Gen Otto to stand firm and strong in order to effectively handle the challenges ahead of him. “You have to work hard and understand Alshabab dynamics.”

In his remarks, Brig Gen Kabango thanked UPDF, African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM) and staff for the guidance and support that enabled him to accomplish the mission successfully. He further advised his successor to always follow the Standing Operating Procedures and work as a team.

Brig Gen Otto also thanked the UPDF leadership for choosing him amongst the many and appointing him the contingent commander. He congratulated Brig Gen Kabango for the job well done in consolidating UPDF achievements in Somalia since 2007.
