A new commander is now leading the Ugandan forces serving in Somalia. Brigadier General Jackson Kayanja took over from Brigadier General Joseph Ssemwanga Musoke during a handover ceremony. The event was overseen by Lieutenant General Kayanja Muhanga, the Ugandan Land Forces Commander.

Muhanga praised the outgoing commander for his work, specifically mentioning an offensive called Operation Silent Storm that hit Al Shabaab militants in the Lower Shabelle area. He told the incoming leader to keep up the pressure and focus on security in Mogadishu, while ensuring troops stay professional and disciplined. In his goodbye speech, Ssemwanga thanked other commanders and partner forces for their support during his tour.

The new contingent commander, Brigadier General Kayanja, promised to continue the mission with a strong focus on discipline. Various senior officers from the African Union mission and Ugandan defense forces attended the ceremony.
