Mukiza Robert was appointed as the UIA director general in June this year and he attributes his appointment on the solidarity and unity of Kisoro district Leaders who he says they overwhelmingly supported him to ensure that he is appointed.
He noted that he owes too much to Kisoro district but locals must be ready for the developments.
Mukiza Robert asked locals to keep on supporting the current president, HE Yoweri Kaguta Museveni because he is the one who made the decision to appoint him.
He also noted that Kisoro should remain united such that the district attracts investors because by January next year Kibaaya land will be surveyed to ensure that the land is secure for other infrastructures like roads, electricity and industrial water.
Kisoro district leaders officially handed over 620 acres of land to UIA for industrial park development in August 2021
The Kisoro district LC5 chairman, Abel Bizimana commonly known as Zulu Pie applauded the president of Uganda who saw value in Mukiza and approved him as the new UIA director general. He asked people from Kisoro to be grateful to the president for the node because Mukiza Robert would be ignored for another person despite his wisdom but the president love Kisoro and its people.
Members of parliament including Hon. Alex Niyonsaba of Bufumbira south, Hon. Dr. Nsaba Buturo James of Bufumbira east and Hon. Kamara John Nizeyimana graced the function and asked Mukiza to consider Kisoro first whenever there is an opportunity from his department. They also asked leaders and other locals to remain united in order to reap big from the central government.
