Dokolo DPC Baganzi Transferred to Soroti

What the report says

Dokolo District Police Commander SP Baganzi Patience has been transferred from Dokolo to Soroti Central Police Station, where she will serve in the same role. Dokolo Post reported that the move was confirmed by North Kyoga Regional Police spokesperson SP Okema Patrick Jimmy, who said it followed a transfer message signed by the Inspector General of Police.

According to the report, Baganzi had been serving as the DPC in Dokolo and was among several senior officers affected by the latest police reshuffle. The article did not say whether the transfer was linked to performance, discipline, or routine rotation, and no further details were provided about the length of her previous posting.

Okema was quoted as praising the affected officers for their service and contribution to policing in the region, while wishing them well in their new assignments. The report also noted other changes in the same reshuffle, including transfers involving ASP Mpairwe Diana Night and ASP Opio Robert to new stations in Hoima, Loro and Napak District.

Police transfers of this kind are a regular feature of personnel management in many forces, helping redistribute leadership and responsibilities across stations. In this case, the movement of a district commander from Dokolo to Soroti marks a leadership change in the North Kyoga policing area.
