Former Vice President Prof Gilbert Bukenya has been appointed Senior Presidential Advisor on Environment and Sanitation.
According to a press release from the Presidential Press Unit, President Museveni appointed his former deputy in the new role, 13 years after he dropped him from cabinet.
Bukenya was VP from 2003 to 2011. After he was dropped from cabinet, Bukenya became critical of the NRM and briefly hobnobbed with the opposition before crossing back to the NRM ahead of the 2016 elections.
