The sixth and final Uganda Airlines evacuation flight has safely landed at Entebbe International Airport, carrying 219 Ugandan nationals from Johannesburg and marking the successful completion of Phase I of the Government of Uganda's voluntary repatriation programme.

The flight was accompanied by H.E. Amb. Paul Amoru, Uganda's High Commissioner to the Republic of South Africa.

With the arrival of this final group, a total of 1,102 Ugandan nationals have now safely returned home through six coordinated evacuation flights, making this the largest Government-led overseas evacuation operation ever undertaken by the Government of Uganda.

The operation brought together several Government institutions, including the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Ugandan High Commission in South Africa, the UPDF, Uganda Airlines, and other partners in a coordinated effort to assist Ugandan citizens affected by the recent unrest in South Africa.

Also on board the final flight were COUSA President Moses Kibombo, Chairman Mwebe (Witbank), and Chairman Maswanku, who travelled to Uganda after playing an important role in supporting and coordinating the voluntary repatriation exercise on the ground. Their dedication and service to the Ugandan community throughout this process are deeply appreciated.. 🇺🇬

COUSA Deputy President Mr Umar Batambuze yesterday accompanied the latest group of 153 Ugandan nationals from Cape Town, South Africa, as they safely returned home under the Government of Uganda's voluntary repatriation programme for citizens affected by the recent xenophobic violence and security concerns in South Africa.

The flight arrived safely at Entebbe International Airport at 11:45 PM (EAT). It also carried the remains of Ronald Nsiima (26) from Namisindwa District, who tragically lost his life during the recent violence targeting foreign nationals in South Africa. We extend our deepest condolences to his family and pray that his soul rests in eternal peace.

The returnees were received by officials from the Government of Uganda, including representatives of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Uganda People's Defence Forces (UPDF), and other government agencies. On behalf of H.E. President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni, the Government of Uganda also provided UGX 30 million in condolence support to the bereaved families.

With another group of 265 Ugandan nationals expected to return, the voluntary repatriation programme continues to provide safe passage home for Ugandans who have chosen to leave South Africa.

COUSA commends the Government of Uganda, the Uganda High Commission in Pretoria, the UPDF, South African authorities, and all partners whose continued collaboration has made this humanitarian exercise possible. We also appreciate every COUSA leader and volunteer who has worked tirelessly to support Ugandans throughout the registration, screening, and repatriation process.

To all our compatriots who have returned home, we wish you strength, healing and a successful new beginning. To the family of the late Ronald Nsiima, our thoughts and prayers remain with you during this difficult time.
