President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni delivered an inspiring lecture to 43 senior police and prison officers at State House, Entebbe, on Wednesday.
These officers, currently undergoing advanced training at the Police Senior Command and Staff College in Bwebajja, included five from the Uganda Prisons Services. Museveni’s address emphasized leadership and national service, motivating the officers in their roles.
During the training, the officers were taken through several course units such as strategic command and security, operational staff work and duties, political education, contemporary policing, leadership & management, new laws & legislation, strategic investigation and intelligence.
President Museveni noted that it was necessary to equip the officers with additional knowledge, with a focus on national interest other than identity.
The President further urged the officers to participate in the socio-economic transformation of the country by emphasising prosperity (producing goods and services for sale) and institutional building by setting up a society based on science.
Museveni congratulated the police leadership for building the institutions to add value to the knowledge of officers.
