Developing Story: Ambassador Aceng to replace Dorothy Hyuha in Australia

Unconfirmed reports indicate that embattled and Immediate Former Ambassador of Uganda to Canada Joy Ruth Aceng is likely to replace her Australian Counterpart.

In what is being described as a diplomatic swap, a source that prefers anonymity at Uganda’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs says this is aimed at calming the diplomatic temperatures.

Ambassador Aceng’s troubles began a few days ago when she was filmed in a disagreement with a group of National Unity Platform (NUP) protesters in Canada.

Dressed in a yellow dress which is the official party colour of Uganda’s ruling National Resistance Movement party, Aceng had a bitter exchange with the protesters.

They shouted slangs and slogans against the Ugandan government over what they claimed were human rights violations.

As a result, the authorities in Canada declared the Ambassador a persona non grata”, citing what they described as misconduct.

Reports indicate that she has since returned to Uganda awaiting a Swap deployment to Australia.

Currently, the High Commissioner of Uganda to Australia is Her Excellency Dorothy Hyuha. She is expected to replace Aceng in Canada. Watch the space!
