Former UPDF Special Forces Command (SFC) deputy commander Brig Gen Charity Bainababo is among 22 senior UPDF officers who graduated from the National Defence College (NDC) in Jinja after completing a National Security and Strategic Studies course.
President Yoweri Museveni, the commander in chief of armed forces presided over the graduation ceremony.
Gen Museveni hailed Brig Gen Charity Bainababo and 21 other senior officers and reminded them of their duty to defend Uganda and transform the continent.
“I congratulate the 22 graduates of the National Security and Strategic Studies course from the National Defence College in Jinja. I hereby authorise them to use the ‘ndc’ symbol,” said Museveni.
“They are now part of a new generation of strategic thinkers, prepared to defend our sovereignty and contribute to Africa’s transformation.”
Museveni hailed the professionalization of the Uganda People’s Defence Forces (UPDF) and noted that Uganda was building a force to liberate, unite and stabilize Africa.
“The UPDF is an army that has evolved from a liberation force into a professional army grounded in strategy, ideology, and patriotism. At every stage, pan-Africanism has been our guiding principle, shaping our purpose, training, and regional responsibilities,” he noted.
“We are not just building an army for Uganda but creating a force for Africa’s liberation, stability, and unity. Pan-Africanism is not merely theoretical. It is the reason we started and remains the reason we serve.”
