The Uganda Peoples’ Defence Forces Spokesman Maj Gen Felix Kulayigye has made it categorically clear that the UPDF is not recruiting any officers as circulated on the Social media.
Maj Gen Kulayigye informed the general public through a Press Statement dated 18th June 2025 that all information circulating on social media platforms alleging the recruitment of medical professionals by the UPDF is entirely false and should be disregarded saying that the UPDF does not solicit or accept applications through unofficial channels or social media platforms.
Maj General Kulayigye explained that any official recruitment processes will be announced through authorized UPDF communication channels, including their official website and verified social media accounts.
He therefore advised the general public to exercise caution and verify information through official UPDF channels before accepting it as true and urged everyone to be vigilant and report any suspicious or false information to the relevant authorities and called for understanding and cooperation in this matter.
