In a brief ceremony attended by the Police Advisory Committee, Ochola handed over the reins to Deputy Inspector General of Police Maj Gen Tumusiime Katsigazi. During the event, he presented a comprehensive report outlining the achievements, challenges, and recommendations for the Uganda Police, spanning over 300 pages.

Fred Enanga, the Police spokesperson, noted that Maj Gen Katsigazi, having worked closely with Ochola, is now responsible for overseeing the force’s more than 50,000 officers.

Ochola expressed gratitude to the president for the opportunity to lead the force, reflecting on his 37-year journey within the police ranks and the various roles he has undertaken. He also praised the collaboration of stakeholders, including the justice, law, and order sector, as well as sister security agencies.

While there was a desire from some quarters for Ochola to continue in his role, insider sources indicate that he decided it was time to retire from the force.
