President Yoweri Museveni gave Christopher Ddamulira a higher military rank Sunday night. The security chief moved from Brigadier General to Major General. Ddamulira runs Uganda's Crime Intelligence department and helps keep the country safe. The president announced the promotion through an official message. Ddamulira thanked his commander for trusting him with more responsibility.
Security forces stopped two major terror attacks recently around Kampala. Bad people planned to bomb churches and public meetings at Munyonyo and Kalerwe areas. Police and soldiers worked together to catch these criminals before they could hurt anyone. They found bombs and arrested the dangerous people. Ddamulira's team helped coordinate these successful operations.
The new Major General spent many years fighting rebels and keeping Uganda secure. He worked against Joseph Kony's Lord's Resistance Army that caused trouble across northern Uganda. His soldiers helped break up rebel groups and made those areas peaceful again. Ddamulira also reaches out to young people living on the streets. He runs programs that help these youth avoid crime and join government projects instead.
This promotion shows President Museveni trusts Ddamulira to handle tough security challenges. Uganda faces many threats as the 2026 elections approach. The government needs smart security leaders who can protect citizens from violence. Ddamulira's experience fighting terrorists and rebels makes him perfect for this important job.
