Associate Professor Sudi Nangoli, an academic from Makerere University Business School (MUBS) has been announced as the new managing director of Uganda Printing and Publishing Corporation (UPPC).
Nangoli was handed the office of managing director UPPC at a ceremony held at the Corporation on Monday. He takes over from Kenneth Oluka who has been the acting MD since 2021.
The office became vacant after the arrest of Mr. Tom Davis Waswa, the then MD following fraud allegations at the national printing corporation.
Oluka while handing over office on Monday said there’s lack of cooperation amongst workers at the printing corporation, a challenge that Nangoli has to solve in his first days as managing director.
