Uganda’s First Son Announces He Will Run For Presidency

Uganda’s President, Yoweli Kaguta Museveni’s Son, Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba, has officially announced that he will stand for presidency in 2026. Via his twitter handle on Wednesday night, Muhoozi posted, “You have wanted me to say it forever! Okay, in the name of Jesus Christ my God, in the name of all the young people of Uganda and the world and in the name of our great revolution, I will stand for the Presidency in 2026!” Gen. Muhoozi has been unofficially campaigning, even though the constitution prohibits service men to engage in political rallies. His father has been in power since 1986 through the power of a gun.
