President Yoweri Museveni praised Uganda's army for building Africa's security during a military college graduation ceremony. He spoke at the National Defence College graduation event on Friday at Buikwhile district. The president congratulated 22 officers who completed their strategic studies course. Two women officers and one civilian joined the graduating class. Officials awarded degrees to students who finished their security training program.

Museveni said African countries make mistakes because they lack proper military education. He wants the college to teach students about private business, patriotism and Pan-African unity. The president believes Uganda's army keeps peace at home and helps neighboring countries like Congo and Somalia. Military leaders need combined training that covers fighting tactics, administration and economics. The college teaches officers how to handle complex security challenges facing the nation.

Defence Minister Jacob Oboth said the college strengthens national security through better leadership training. Uganda plans to create a National Defence University that offers higher military education courses. The college will start accepting students from government ministries and agencies. Officials hope to expand the campus by buying more land around the current location. The program helps Uganda develop skilled military commanders who can protect the country.
