Uganda’s High Commissioner to Canada, Joy Ruth Acheng, has been declared “persona non grata” for allegedly engaging in “uncouth behavior” by the Canadian government.
However, information from the inner corridors of power at the Foreign Affairs Ministry confided to this reporter that Acheng was going to be deported on August 21, 2024, for uncouth behavior in Canada.
Acheng’s deportation alert comes just a week after National Unity Platform (NUP) party president Robert Kyagulanyi took to X, formerly Twitter, to accuse Acheng of openly engaging in partisan politics in Canada.

Kyagulanyi shared a video, which went viral on social media, in which Acheng appeared to be in an angry exchange with a group of NUP supporters who were allegedly protesting on a street in Toronto, a major Canadian city.
Acheng appeared in an armless yellow dress, wearing dark glasses. She also had a yet-to-be-identified woman, who was also dressed in yellow, who was using a smartphone camera to shoot footage.
It should be remembered that under Article 9 of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations, which governs how states interact, the host country can “at any time and for any reason” declare a person to be persona non grata—unwelcome in their country.
In the video, the ambassador was also seen at one point taking selfies with some NUP supporters who were wearing red outfits such as caps and T-shirts
