The Clerk to Parliament, Adolf Mwesige Kasaija, has written to Dhamuzungu Geoffrey accepting his resignation from the post of Senior Programs Officer, Department of Corporate Planning and Strategy, Parliament of Uganda.
“Reference is made to your letter dated 22nd April 2025, giving notice of your intention to resign from the Parliamentary Service with effect from 25th May 2025,” Mwesige wrote in the letter, penned on 23rd April 2025.
Adding: “The purpose of this letter is to inform you that your resignation has been duly accepted in accordance with Regulation 11.7 of the Parliamentary Commission Human Resource Police Manual and Section A-O of the Uganda Public Services Standing Orders 2021.”
“Your resignation will take effect on 25th May 2025 as requested in your letter,” Mwesige concluded the letter and copied in Director, Human Resource, Direct, Finance and Chief Operations Officer, Parliamentary Pension Scheme.
In the resignation letter, Dhamuzungu indicated that he was quitting to take on active politics and participate in the 2026 general elections. He intends to vie for the post of Member of Parliament for Budiope East, a seat currently occupied by Eng. Moses Magogo. It should be remembered that Dhamuzungu represented the same constituency between 2016 and 2021 before Magogo snatched it from him.
The Dhamuzungu declaration renews the rivalry he enjoys with Magogo in the constituency. The two NRM stalwarts are expected to face off all the way to the January general elections day, no matter what comes out of the party primaries scheduled before the end of the year.
