Among the new appointments President Yoweri Museveni made was the posting of his wife Janet as state minister for Karamoja, a region in northeastern Uganda that has been plagued by conflict and extreme poverty for decades.
Moja ya uteuzi aliofanya Rais Yoweri Museveni ni ule wa kumteua mke wake, Janet, kuwa Waziri wa Nchi wa Karamoja. Eneo hili liko kaskazini-mashariki mwa Uganda na kwa miongo mingi limegubikwa na migogoro na umaskini uliokithiri.
