Senior Presidential Advisor for Special Duties and National Resistance Movement (NRM) Chairperson for Kayunga District, Moses Karangwa Kalisa, has died following a fatal road accident along the Kayunga–Jinja Road.
News of his death was confirmed on Monday by the Minister for the Presidency, Milly Babalanda, through an official condolence message.
“It is with deep sorrow that I announce the passing of the Senior Presidential Advisor and Chairperson of NRM Kayunga District, Moses Karangwa Kalisa, following a tragic accident,” Ms Babalanda said.
She described Kalisa as a committed mobiliser and loyal member of the ruling National Resistance Movement party.
“He was a valued member of our mighty party, the National Resistance Movement (NRM), and he will be remembered for his loyalty to the party,” she added.
“We extend our heartfelt condolences to the bereaved family during this difficult time. May his soul rest in eternal peace.”
Kalisa previously served as NRM Chairperson for Jinja Municipality, where he became known for his mobilisation efforts and active involvement in strengthening party structures within the region.
In January this year, President Yoweri Museveni appointed him Senior Presidential Advisor for Special Duties, elevating him to one of the advisory roles within government.
His death adds to growing concern over road safety on major highways across Uganda, where fatal crashes continue to claim lives despite ongoing sensitisation campaigns by traffic authorities.
By press time, funeral arrangements had not yet been officially communicated by family members or NRM officials.
