OP-ED: Understanding The Vision Behind Gov’t Agency Mergers, Streamlining Services For A Modern Uganda

By Chris Buyela 

Government mergers, like the one involving the Uganda Coffee Development Authority (UCDA) under the Ministry of Agriculture, Animal Industry, and Fisheries (MAAIF), are part of a broader effort to streamline services. This restructuring is not meant to reduce support or quality but to consolidate functions for better efficiency, cost savings, and improved resource allocation.

For example, the UCDA has long supported coffee farmers, but by integrating it directly under MAAIF, the government aims to unify agricultural policies and ensure cohesive planning and execution. Similarly, the Uganda National Roads Authority (UNRA) has been streamlined to bring road construction and maintenance into a more centralized model under the Ministry of Works and Transport.

All these changes aim to improve service delivery and reduce redundancy, allowing the government to make the best use of available resources.
Administratively Uganda has faced alot of setbacks because it still operates on structures of 1996, Uganda relies on traditional management system yet the world is how in modernised management where one person can run a system and the results are seen

Many politicians have got chance to raise their voices without even knowing that the move to merging some agencies is for the best of the development of our country. I was reading a tweet by Hon Kyagulanyi who only singled out his political interest of citing violence other than educating Ugandans that this merging is for our own safety, Ugandans should ably support president Museveni’s visions of a Uganda we want.

In Bugisu where coffee is there pride over 10 MPs in parliament voted in support of the government side and I have seen bloggers and opponents who have not taken time to understand the importance of this merging writing rough articles on others but I think by this guidance one can understand why the merging is good.
