Gen @mkainerugaba this afternoon supported the Tanzanian National Basketball teams (men & women) that are currently in Uganda for the Zone 5 Africa Basketball qualifiers with UGX 7.5m. Gen Kainerugaba was born in Dar es Salaam, Tz, and clearly has not forgotten his roots!

Brig. Gen. Bainababo’s story is quite compelling and inspirational. Excellent motivation not only to the female gender but all young people out there. ‘It always seems impossible until it’s done.’ Well done General!

Q1. Good afternoon General. The Uganda People’s Defence Forces launched Operation Shujaa two months ago against ADF terrorists situated in eastern DRC. What is your assessment of what has been achieved to date in that operation?

The unit was in charge of securing the Karuma-Pakwach stretch thru Murchison Falls NP, a vital trade link to West Nile and DRC. The CO, LTC Willy Musisi (RIP), is one of the bravest and most tactically proficient officers of the NRA/UPDF I have ever known. He mentored us well!

It is quite gratifying that the entire country is now peaceful, and happily reaping the dividends that come with it. This peace was won thru enormous sacrifice of sweat & blood, and other resources. Ugandans should jealously continue to guard their cherished peace!

Q2. As we understand, the operation in DRC is a joint operation, together with DRC counter parts FARDC. What is the level of cooperation, considering the two armies might subscribe to different military doctrines?

I hope this provides useful additional insights to observers about Op Shujaa, not any better than from the Op Comd directly. ADF is facing the fight of their lives, and the earlier they seek amnesty,the better it will be for them and everyone in the region: peace & stability.End.

Q5. Uganda has been accused of plundering DRC natural resources, as the ICJ ruled recently. The court decided that Uganda must pay reparations to the DRC government amounting to over $ 300 million. What is your view about this development in view of the ongoing joint operations?
