About Post Author
Not again! I’ve been waiting for promotion for years, but wapi? Pray for me for next round of promotions. Seriously, I also need some stones on my shoulders.
congs all of you who have made it
Are the promotions in the Army of Uganda Fair because Soldiers who have served for long in the UPDF are not promoted is this possible for all these years.
Getting promoted in forces is one of the sweetest things. Though it comes with more added responsibility and expectations from Above. Congratulation and please continue working hard and be disciplined, promotions only put you in positions to LISTEN AND SERVE your juniors and not to OPPRESS THEM.
