The Public Relations Association of Uganda welcomed new leaders on Thursday at the Protea Hotel. Outgoing president Tina Wamala handed control to Irene Naksiita from the Uganda Red Cross Society. Uganda Communications Commission head George William Nyombi attended the ceremony, where digital expert Patrick Adengo gave the main speech.
The former team built financial strength for the organization during their term. They created new payment systems like FlexiPay and IFMS, formed partnerships with industry companies, and grew membership across all categories. Wamala expressed thanks for her time leading the passionate team.
Naksiita shared plans to expand PRAU's influence and help members develop professionally. She aims to advance the PRAU Bill through Parliament to strengthen public relations work in Uganda. The previous leadership brought back the PRAU Excellence Awards and hosted two national PR events. They launched a student mentoring program and held the second East Africa Public Relations Week.
Their work added over 300 members to the association. They opened PRAU Home at Ntinda Shopping Center. The team cut spending by 173 million Ugandan shillings. The PRAU Bill awaits its turn for discussion in Parliament.
