Due to the increasing demand of the Uganda Police Band services, the department has opened a branch in the North Kyoga Region.

The event was held at a function held at Coronation Grounds in Lira Municipality.

AIGP Asan Kasingye, the Chief Political Commissar, handed over brand new music equipment to the Regional Police Commander, SSP Peter Nkulega.

In his remarks AIGP Kasingye thanked the department of band for developing the idea, which he said will also play a big role in community policing in the region.

“The purpose of launching this music, dance and drama is to help in all the activities of the Chief Political Commissar, help in ideological grounding of the public working hand in hand with the police to prevent crime and also deal with ideological orientation of the police officers,” AIGP Kasingye said.

He added, “Also, the band will help broaden and widen community policing. Through the band, we can have an effective information and publication since it’s a tool in mobilizing the public. “

SP Stephen Okwi Okedi, the Acting Commissioner Police Band said that taking band services to regional levels will help reduce on the costs of transportation of band equipment from the headquarters, adding that regional band will offer the same services like the national band.
