Prime Minister Robinah Nabbanja has pledged renewed commitment to service delivery and national development after being sworn in to continue leading government business in Parliament under the new Cabinet unveiled on Monday.
The ceremony, presided over by President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni at State House, Entebbe, saw 78 members of the executive take oath of office, officially ushering in a new government term.
Senior officials, including Vice President Jessica Alupo and other Cabinet ministers, were also sworn in during the event coordinated by the Office of the Head of Public Service.
Shortly after the ceremony, Nabbanja expressed gratitude to the Head of State for retaining her in the position, describing the appointment as both an honour and a responsibility to serve citizens across the country.
“I am deeply honoured to have been sworn in as Prime Minister and Leader of Government Business in Parliament,” she said.
She further thanked President Museveni for what she termed continued trust in her leadership within the executive.
“I once again thank H.E. Gen. Yoweri Kaguta Museveni, President of the Republic of Uganda, for granting me the opportunity to continue serving the people of Uganda,” Nabbanja stated.
The Prime Minister emphasized that the new term should be defined by unity and efficiency within government, urging Cabinet colleagues to strengthen coordination in order to speed up delivery of public services.
“As we begin this new term, I reaffirm my commitment to serving all the people of Uganda,” she said, adding, “I urge all of us in government to continue working as a team so that we can accelerate service delivery to the people of Uganda, and drive socioeconomic transformation.”
Her remarks come at a time when the government is preparing for an induction programme for the new Cabinet at the National Leadership Institute in Kyankwanzi, aimed at aligning ministers with national priorities and governance expectations.
The new Cabinet is expected to steer key policy areas including infrastructure development, economic growth, and public service reform as the administration enters its next phase.
