<\/figure>\n\n\n\nHajji Kakande thanked Brig. Gen. Kisembo for the work well done during his tenure as the Director of NALI.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThis place would not have succeeded if it was not for your support. You have done your work marvelously. Your performance has been outstanding,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
He also welcomed the new Director,\u00a0 saying he is the right person to replace Brig. Gen. Kisembo.\u00a0 \u201cHe knows the NRM ideology very well and I’m happy that he is taking over,\u201d Hajji Kakande noted.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cYou have a challenge. You are replacing a man who has worked very hard and improved the welfare of the place and that of the officers here. Before him, I used to get a lot of complaints about this place but when he came, I never received any complaints again. Make sure that you fit in his big shoes well.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He also advised Col. Rukogota to always consult with his predecessor in case he gets any challenges while running the institute. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cDeliver what you are supposed to deliver and I’m optimistic that you will be able to deliver on your mandate.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hajji Kakande further assured the new director that the Office of the President shall try its level best so that NALI gets more money for capital development. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe need more structures, improvements in the area of water and other consumables,\u201d he noted. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Secretary-Office of the President further underscored the crucial role of NALI in developing leaders who are knowledgeable, visionary and fully committed to the socio-economic transformation of Uganda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He said this is done through inculcating the norms of patriotism, ideas of socio-economic transformation, wealth creation, good governance and issues of security. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cBefore NALI, the mindset of the people was very bad. There was a very big divide among Ugandans but this changed due to the inculcation of the norms of patriotism,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI’m very sure that the essence of Patriotism, Pan-Africanism, and democracy have been entrenched to a number of Ugandans who have been here. That’s the ideology of NRM.I have seen people from Somalia, Sudan, Malawi, among other countries coming here to learn and see how this institute is doing. All of us must work together to consolidate the achievements of this institute. We aim to make it an international institute,\u201d he added. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
On the other hand, Hajji Kakande challenged the opposition members to also take advantage of the institute so that they benefit from the teachings of patriotism. He explained that the institute is not only for the NRM but for all Ugandans. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThis place is about opening the minds of all Ugandans in terms of Patriotism, Socio-economic Transformation and security.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The outgoing Director, Brig. Gen. Kisembo thanked the President for giving him the opportunity to serve in the Office of the President as the Director of NALI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI want to thank him for entrusting me to serve our nation,\u201d Brig. Gen. Kisembo said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
He added that he was happy that Col. Rukogota, whom he described as a patriot, was replacing him in \u201cthis beautiful and wonderful place\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI want to also thank the Office of the President for the unwavering support to NALI and the support accorded to me during my tenure as the Director of NALI.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Brig. Gen. Kisembo appealed to the Office of the President to support NALI in capacity development. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe have been depending on visiting lecturers who come here and go. In the next planning we need to look at capacity building,\u201d he urged. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
In his acceptance speech, Col. Rukogota thanked President Museveni for appointing him as the new Director of NALI. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI thanked God for the big day. He is the one who has enabled us to build the critical capabilities which our leadership has graciously appreciated to appoint me the Director of this great institution,\u201d he said<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cI also thank the Commander-In-Chief whose guidance all along has successfully groomed us and lifted us from those who didn’t know about revolution and now we are revolutionists, taking over responsibilities.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Additionally, Col. Rukogota pledged to work diligently with all stakeholders to accomplish the intent of the appointing authority. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Col. Rukogota also thanked the Office of the President for the commitment to enhance support to the institution especially regarding human resource and capital development. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cHajji Kakande you have been a great mentor to me and you have always had an open door policy for me. I thank you also for being diligent. Hajji Kakande is always in the office very early in the morning to attend to his work.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He further lauded Brig. Gen. Kisembo for leading the institute well during his tenure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cNALI would not be what it is now without you and other predecessors\u2019 support. I can only thank you well by making sure that the great projects which you started are executed up to their successful end.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
