President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni has appointed Arthur Mugyenyi as the new Director General of the Internal Security Organisation (ISO). Mr Mugyenyi replaces the late Brigadier Charles Oluka, who died recently.
The appointment comes at a time when Uganda is seeking to strengthen its security and intelligence framework. Mr Mugyenyi’s vast experience in security and intelligence is expected to enhance ISO’s operational effectiveness in addressing national and regional security concerns.
Brigadier Oluka’s tenure was marked by efforts to streamline internal security operations and enhance intelligence gathering to safeguard Uganda’s national interests. Mr Mugyenyi is expected to continue these efforts, working closely with his deputy, Tony Kinyera Apecu.
Mr Apecu has been appointed as the new Deputy Director General of ISO. Formerly, Col. Emmy Katabazi held the position, but he has been assigned a new role as Deputy Ambassador.
The appointments are seen as part of President Museveni’s efforts to strengthen key security and diplomatic institutions in Uganda. Mr Mugyenyi, Mr Apecu, and Col. Katabazi are expected to take up their new roles with immediate effect.
