United Nations Support Office in Somalia (UNSOS) has donated medical equipment to African Union Mission in Somalia (AMISOM) Level Two Force Hospital in Sector One.

The function was officiated by the Acting Force Commander Maj Gen James Nakibus Lakara, who thanked the UN for the timely donation that will go a long way to boost the good work the AMISOM medical team are doing.

The General further thanked the Uganda Peoples’ Defence Forces (UPDF) for providing the required personnel to man the hospital. “In the same spirit,let me thank the UPDF for providing the requisite personnel to man Level Two Force Hospital in Mogadishu.” General Lakara said.
