UNAA Council Statement on Repeat Elections

Dear UNAA Members, friends of UNAA and UNAA partners,

Regarding the unconstitutional repeat elections carried out on February 9th, 2018, the UNAA Council Speaker, Alex Semwanga, noted:

that the UNAA Council determined this exercise to be unconstitutional and therefore declared the results null and void
that the UNAA Council recommended that a fully constituted Electoral Commission continues with their preparation for a repeat election in Seattle 2018 as earlier planned
that the current UNAA leadership continue with their duties under their terms of reference until the 2018 Seattle Annual General Meeting

Recent Hijack of UNAA Social Media Channels and Website

Earlier this week, we noticed suspicious activity on our social media accounts that led to some of them being hijacked. The hijacking group appears to be led by former UNAA president Brian Kwesiga. These actions sabotage our communications' teams efforts at a time when the Ugandan and North American community gear up for multiple trade and investment expos and the auspicious #UNAASeattle2018 Convention in Seattle. These actions also undermine the identity of our organization.

We have since regained access to all our social media channels. However, due to continued attempts to hijack our website by the same group, we have had the domain suspended as we seek legal resolution to this matter.

We shall keep you posted.

Sincerely,

Communications Team

Ugandan North American Association

We continue to give UNAA a whole new look, and improve convention registration and customer experience. #SEATTLE2018 is one you won't want to miss. Thank you for your continued support. #UNAASEATTLE2018 #UNITEDWESTAND
