Bemanya Twebaze is a Ugandan lawyer and corporate executive, who currently serves a four-year term as Director General of the African Regional Intellectual Property Organization (ARIPO).[1] Previously, from 2012 to 2020, he was Uganda's Registrar General and Official Receiver of the Uganda Registration Services Bureau.[2]
Education
He holds a Bachelor of Laws, awarded by Makerere University, in Kampala, Uganda's capital and largest city. He also holds a Diploma in Legal Practice from the Law Development Centre, also in Kampala. His Master of Business Administration was obtained from the Eastern and Southern African Management Institute.[2]
Career
Mr. Twebaze originally worked as a lawyer in the areas of commercial law, business registration, intellectual property and insolvency, with experience in managing and concluding the liquidation of large parastatals.[2]
In his role as Registrar General, he worked with other government agencies and stakeholders, to shorten the time it takes to register a business, from four days, to two hours.[3]
In November 2020, he was elected by the Administrative Council of ARIPO as the organisation's Director General for a four-year term beginning 1 January 2021.[4]
Other responsibilities
In May 2017, Bemanya Twebaze, was appointed receiver-manager of Uganda Telecom Limited, a parastatal company which had failed to meet its financial obligations.[5] Although a forensic audit by PricewaterhouseCoopers determined UTL's liabilities at Sh700 billion (approx. US$196 million), with total assets valued at Sh248 billion (approx. US$69 million), Bemanya Twebaze is optimistic that the business can be revived back to profitability.[6]
In January 2020, the High Court of Uganda replaced Bemanya Twebaze with Ruth Sebatindira, as the Administrator of UTL, in court-appointed receivership. The court ruling was on 2 January 2020 and the hand-over of office occurred on 6 January 2020.[7][8]
