President Yoweri Museveni has appointed Ms Dorothy Kisaka as the new Executive Director for Kampala City Authority replacing Eng. Andrew Kitaka who has been in acting capacity ever since Jennifer Musis left.
Eng. Kitaka has been in acting capacity for a period of one year and half. The president further appointed an accomplished engineer, David Luyimbazi as Deputy Director. Eng. Luyimbazi is credited with the designing and construction of Entebbe Express Highway and Jinja new bridge. He was maliciously sacked from Uganda National Roads Authority (UNRA). He was eventually set free after an inquiry that established he didn’t participate in the said allegations.
KCCA Executive Director and Deputy Director are appointed by the president on the recommendations of public service commission.
Mr. Museveni further appointed Dr. Daniel Okello Ayen as Director Health and Environment, Ms Sarah Knayike as Director Gender, Community Service while Ms Grace Akullo as Director Human Resources and Administration.
Senior Presidential Press Secretary Don Wanyama confirmed the development but told Eagle Online that these were mere recommendation to Public Service Commission by the president as the nominees await confirmation by the commission.
“Media colleagues, on proposed changes at KCC, for now we can say they are nominees who have to go through vetting by PSC.” Mr Wanyama said.
