The national military was renamed to "Uganda Army" on 1 August 1962, though it was often still called the "Uganda Rifles". Uganda officially became independent on 9 October 1962. At this point, British officers recommended one of the few native officers, Major Augustine Karugaba, as new army chief to Prime Minister Obote. Instead, Obote dismissed Karugaba, considering him disloyal and preferring less educated, northern officers. He was also forced to leave several British officers in place for the time being, with one of them, J.M.A. Tillet, serving as first head of the Uganda Army.

Langi had initially been a very small minority, but their number quickly grew as a result of Obote's influence. After Obote overthrew Mutesa II, he purged the army of most Bantu officers and a significant number of Teso troops. Afterwards, the military was dominated by Langi, Acholi, and West Nile people whose members were eventually drawn into the Obote-Amin rivalry. Obote consequently enlisted an increasing number of Langi. By 1971, most Uganda Army troops were Langi, Acholi, and Teso, while soldiers belonging to West Nile peoples constituted a minority.

These purges alongside mass recruitment of new troops and the patronage system which Amin implemented to keep the army loyal resulted in growing unrest and corruption within the Uganda Army. Elements in the military repeatedly attempted to overthrow the President, while exile factions including Obote's attempted to facilitate coups or rebellions by organizing guerilla attacks and mobilizing discontented soldiers. The Tanzania-based militant group loyal to Obote was eventually named

especially underprivileged, and even the Acholi soldiers felt that the
President was unduly favoring Langi in regard to promotions. In January 1970, someone attempted to murder Obote, while UA deputy commander Pierino Yere Okoya, a rival of Amin, was assassinated. It was suspected that Amin had plotted both the unsuccessful attack on Obote as well as Okoya's murder. The UA commander fuelled these suspicions by temporarily fleeing from Kampala after being informed that Obote had survived the assassination attempt.

many Acholi and Langi soldiers deserted to link up with Obote in exile. When hundreds of deserters were captured at the
Sudanese border in April 1971, showcasing just how many troops were disloyal and possibly joining an exile army supportive of Obote, President Amin's government reacted by initiating purges of all suspected dissidents in the military. Instead of selective actions, entire groups of soldiers were massacred. About 5,000 Acholi and Langi soldiers were killed or

Tanganyikans. Obote was convinced by his arguments, and rejected the proposal. Researcher Timothy Parsons stated that Cheyne's claims were based on bias instead of facts, and that the Uganda Army was actually the "least stable" ex-KAR formation in East Africa. By July 1963, the army had grown to 1,500 personnel. Considering various security threats, posed by local militant resistance groups such as the

In addition, Obote decided to not only africanize the officer corps, but also reduce cooperation with the British military in general so that the latter had less leverage in Uganda. In late July 1964, the

It played a prominent role in defeating local insurgencies, suppressing opposition to Obote, and intervened in conflicts in the Congo as well as Sudan. Dissatisfied soldiers overthrew Obote in 1971, resulting in the establishment of the
