By our reporter  

Ugandan President has appointed Brigadier Dick Prit Olum as the new Defence Advisor in Kinshasa, in the Democratic Republic of Congo, in a move to keep an eye on the developments in the eastern neighbor, always a breeding spot for war especially in the eastern regions.

In a statement made by UPDF media team and communicated by Lt Col Deo Akiiki the deputy military spokesman, Brig Olumu is replacing the late Brig. Geoffrey ‘Taban’ Kyabihende who passed away early August this year.
