Farouk Kirunda is President Yoweri Kaguta Tibuhaburwa Museveni’s new press secretary, replacing Linda Wamboka Nabusayi who was promoted to become senior press secretary as Don Wanyama was appointed Vision Group CEO.
Pearl Times News can authoritatively confirm that Kirunda, an aide to President Museveni, and also administrator at the Office of the National Chairman (ONC) based at Kyambogo, will be replacing Nabusayi.
Nabusayi’s elevation was revealed on Friday, leaving the press secretary office vacant.
