The president of the Republic of Uganda, H.E. Yoweri Museveni, has appointed Lady Justice Aisha Naluzze Batala as the new Inspector General of Government (IGG), to succeed Beti Kamya.

Betty Kamya’s four-year term elapsed the previous evening, making the position vacant until it was fulfilled today, and the news was confirmed by Deputy Presidential Press Secretary Farouk Kirunda.

She takes over the role at the Inspectorate of Government, an institution responsible for promoting good governance and accountability and combating corruption in public offices.

Beti Kamya, a former minister and outspoken critic of President Museveni’s administration, was appointed IGG on July 15, 2021, following Irene Mulyagonja’s departure to the Constitutional Court.

During Kamya’s time, she worked to strengthen the enforcement of the Leadership Code and engaged citizens in anti-corruption efforts, including the “Expose the Corrupt” campaign.

Justice Naluzze told Uncovered Ug news reporters that Beti Kamya’s two deputies, Patricia Achan Okiria and Anne Twinomugisha Muhairwe, will continue in their roles.

Before her appointment, Justice Naluzze served on the High Court bench. However, she is expected to bring a fresh judicial perspective to the Inspectorate’s work on oversight and accountability.

In conclusion, we encourage her to work for the people of the country, not for her own benefits; this will make Uganda a good country to live in.
