Henry Luke Orombi (born 11 October 1949) in Pakwach, North Western Uganda,[2] is a Ugandan Anglican bishop. He served as Archbishop of Uganda and Bishop of Kampala from 2004 until his retirement in December 2012, two years earlier than expected.[3] He was succeeded as Archbishop by Stanley Ntagali, who was consecrated in December 2012.[4] Orombi served as Bishop of the Diocese of Kampala, which is the fixed episcopal see of the Archbishop, but unlike many other fixed metropolitical sees, the incumbent is not officially known as "Archbishop of Kampala", but bears the longer compound title "Archbishop of Uganda and Bishop of Kampala".
