According to Mathias Okwir, “No one has complained about him because he is a straightforward person who does not entertain corruption in the Uganda Police Traffic Department.”
He emphasized that the key to successful work is respect for the public, as it is through discipline and respect that better coordination and the fruitful delivery of services are achieved.
