Dear fellow Ugandans:

It gives me great pleasure once again to announce my CANDIDACY for RE-ELECTION as the UNAA PRESIDENT for the year 2009-11 in Chicago, Illinois during the upcoming 21^st Annual Convention.

I will continue with my message of "Change", UNAA's "Independence", "Accountability" and "Transparency"- "Moving UNAA beyond Conventions". I will stand up against any outside interference and protect the sovereignty of the organization and its membership.

Over the last two years UNAA has focused on: Organizational process of our annual conventions, Establishment of UNAA Secretariat-Boston Headquarters, Immigration Advocacy; De-Politicize UNAA, Northern Uganda Conflict, Education and empowering of the UNAA local chapters. We are also working with cultural organizations like Ttabamiruka, Ggwanga Mujje, Basoga Twegaite and others to harmonize our general membership.

For the future, the following is what I regard to be A PACKAGE OF UNAA VISION:

Widening UNAA membership, Transforming UNAA into a financially self-sustaining organization, broadening the bridge between UNAA and Uganda, establishment of UNAA subscription magazine through our Secretariat and inaugurating UNAA online Job database bank. We will also be working towards expanding the UNAA Group Insurance.

I am also happy to announce that I have initiated a process that would see the establishment of U.S - Makerere Oncology Fellowship Training Program in Uganda. This is in addition to my own personal humanitarian services in the areas of HIV/AIDS that have been in place for the last three years

Finally, as I seek for your vote, I am happy to endorse, Mr. John Mutyaba of Minneapolis, Minnesota for UNAA Vice President, and Mr. William Ssenkumba of Los Angeles, California for UNAA Secretary General.
