@ReachDrMuganga you're a Ugandan and we have no doubt against your commitment and Love towards this ctry. However, public office is governed by law, not sentiment. Don't make this a @Thomas_Tayebwa
Vs Banyarwanda/ Rwanda issue. Its strictly you and your citizenship.
Article 80 of our Constitution disqualifies persons who owe allegiance to another country from serving as Members of Parliament, later alone Ministers and questions of allegiance have historically arisen in relation to holders of dual citizenship seeking high public office.
Given the strategic nature of the office you have been appointed to lead....Ministry of Internal Affairs, which oversees citizenship, immigration, national identification, and internal security—the prudent course for you would be to present a Certificate of Renunciation of Canadian Citizenship issued by the Canadian authorities, together with proof of Ugandan citizenship simple.
This is not unusual internationally. Other Countries like AustraliaDr. Muganga is a Ugandan by birth whose commitment to Uganda has never been in doubt. However, public office is governed by law, not sentiment.

This is not unusual internationally. Countries such as Australia have seen elected leaders and parliamentary candidates disqualified over dual citizenship concerns, including under Section 44 of the Australian Constitution. The principle is simple: holders of sensitive public offices should demonstrate undivided allegiance to the state they serve.
By formally proving renunciation, Dr. Muganga would eliminate legal uncertainty, strengthen public confidence, and focus fully on serving Uganda. 🇺🇬 @DaudiKabanda@Thomas_Tayebwa@ReachDrMuganga

Recently, we visited the Boston Public Library located at Copley Square in Boston, Massachusetts.
The central library is situated at 700 Boylston Street and was founded in 1848, making it the first large free municipal library in the United States.

@KagutaMuseveni With due respect, Mr. President ...should citizens demand for quick trials....isn't the government aware that citizens should be prosecuted promptly
