Geraldine Ssali Busuulwa

In October 2017, the then Uganda Minister of Finance, Matia Kasaija, declined to renew Geraldine Busuulwa's contract, following the boards's recommendation. The board cited "less-than-satisfactory performance", during her tenure. She was replaced by Patrick Ayota, previously the Head of Finance at NSSF Uganda, from 2010 until 2017.

Geraldine Ssali Busuulwa is a Ugandan accountant and business administrator. She served as the Deputy managing director of the National Social Security Fund (Uganda) (NSSF Uganda), from 20 March 2011, until 29 October 2017. She was first appointed to that position on 20 March 2011 by Finance Minister Syda Bbumba. On 29 October 2014, she was re-appointed to the same position after a ten-month period when she served as Acting managing director.
