President Museveni has ordered the dissolution of the UPDF Fisheries Protection Unit after an intelligence probe found mismanagement, overfishing and alleged extortion of fishermen.
The unit’s roles have been handed over to the UPDF Marine Forces, and landing site committees have been scrapped. UPDF says the unit is now under Marine command.
Sources say Lt Col Mercy Tukahirwa, who commanded the unit, is to be redeployed, though UPDF says the unit is now under Marine Forces command.
