Lt Gen Elwelu Commences Deadly Anti-Corruption Operations In Karamoja

Key stakeholders from the political, security, and religious spheres in the Karamoja sub-region have reaffirmed their commitment to strengthening collective efforts to combat corruption and promote accountability, accelerating the transformative agenda.

This pledge was made yesterday at the launch of activities in the sub-region at Goli Army Club in Moroto Municipality, led by Lt Gen Peter Elwelu, Senior Presidential Advisor and Head of the Teso-Karamoja Governance Monitoring Mechanism.

Hon. Peter Lokeris, Minister for Karamoja Affairs, emphasised the need for collective leadership efforts to effectively manage and transform Karamoja. “I urge all leaders to work together to bring peace and prosperity to Karamoja in all aspects,” he said. Minister Lokeris commended Lt Gen Elwelu’s past achievements, particularly the Nabilatuk resolution, which aimed to restore order in Karamoja. He called on all stakeholders to support Lt Gen Elwelu in his fight against corruption, promoting transparency and accountability.

Lt Gen Elwelu emphasised the importance of a collaborative approach, adopting a ‘watchman’ mindset rather than an ‘accuser’ mentality. “My work philosophy aligns with the Kingdom of Heaven and the NRA’s revolutionary methods, which prioritise prevention over cure,” he said. He pledged to oversee government programs and urged all stakeholders to uphold core values such as transparency, servanthood, teamwork, and accountability.

Maj Gen Don William Nabasa, Commander of the 3 Infantry Division of the Uganda Peoples’ Defence Forces (UPDF), reported that the overall security situation in Karamoja remains relatively stable due to sustained collaborative efforts.

Maj Martha Asiimwe, Head of Resident District Commissioners, pledged unwavering support and allegiance to work collaboratively with Lt Gen Elwelu and his team for the betterment of the Karamoja community.

The regional meeting was attended by Hon. Nambozo Florence Wamala, State Minister for Karamoja Affairs, Commissioner of Police Okoshi Simon Peter, Brig Gen Wilberforce Sserunkuma, Deputy Commander, Mr. Deusdedit Tumwesigye, district officials, religious leaders, and senior officers of security agencies.
