Arrested generals and a threatened VP: President's son fuels Ugandan succession fever https://t.co/0PtKiaxoqn

[Calvin Echodu @EchoduOfficial]

In my submission, I drew the President’s attention to several important matters affecting the Teso sub-region and its development priorities.

First, I raised the growing anxiety among the people of Teso arising from rumours of a possible rebellion and conveyed the leaders’ request for an opportunity to meet with the President to discuss the matter and address the concerns.

Secondly, I emphasized the need for the Ministry of Education and Sports to issue a letter of no objection to facilitate the transfer of the land title to the Ministry of Health, paving the way for the construction of Soroti Regional Referral Hospital.

Lastly, I requested the Ministry of Works and Transport to prioritise and include the Soroti City bypass in the next national budget to ease traffic congestion, improve connectivity and support the region’s socio-economic transformation.

I believe these matters require timely attention and coordinated action in the interest of the people of Teso and the wider Eastern Uganda region.

#Uganda’s ruling National Resistance Movement (#NRM) has reportedly rejected a proposal to name President Yoweri Museveni’s son, Muhoozi Kainerugaba, as his successor ahead of the 2031 presidential election, following opposition from senior party members, five sources told AFP. The proposal was discussed at a closed-door party meeting on Tuesday, but a vote on Kainerugaba’s candidacy was abandoned after several members spoke against it. (📸: VCG)

This, for me is the working formula for change of Government. Let Edwin Sifuna run for President and be deputized by Irungu Kangata or John Methu. Fred Matiangi, Martha Karua, Eugene Wamalwa and any other presidential aspirant in the United Opposition should run for Senate and secure votes for Edwin Sifuna from their respective Counties. H E Rigathi Gachagua and H E Kalonzo Musyoka should be “supreme leaders” in charge of the presidential campaign and the Government to be formed.

[Donald B Kipkorir @DonaldBKipkorir]

Rigathi Gachagua is the King or Kingmaker of the next General Elections …. He controls over 6m solid votes!

Only President William Ruto, Kalonzo Musyoka & Edwin Sifuna understand this.

Anyone who doesn’t understand the raw power of Gachagua is a political moron! Abusing Gachagua is like a piglet tickling the b*lls of a rained lion!

Uganda is tapping its nearly $7 billion in reserves to lessen the blow of a plunging shilling, which is the world’s second-worst-performing currency this month after Iraq’s dinar. https://t.co/E85oNxd32U

[Duncan Abigaba @DuncanAbigaba]

UGX is the second worst performing currency after Iraq's dinar. It's time to have an honest conversation about our plunging human rights record that is killing FDI, capital flight to Nairobi and Dubai by our political and business class, and a review of the Sovereignty Bill.

Parliament’s decision to remove the IEBC’s legal obligation to livestream results at polling stations is a sign of fear!

Article 81 of our Constitution demands transparent, impartial, accurate and accountable elections. These are not optional safeguards.

Kenya has paid a heavy price for electoral distrust. How can MPs claim to represent the people while weakening the very safeguards that protect their votes?

If our leaders are confident in the people’s choice, why make it harder to see the results? Strengthen transparency, don’t undermine it.

[Pauline Njoroge @paulinenjoroge]

Kenyans deserve to follow election results as they come in. We cannot allow secrecy and opaqueness in our electoral process. The move by MPs to remove the legal requirement for IEBC to livestream election results takes our country down a very dangerous path.

NTV ran this story two weeks ago, and it’s slowly making more sense now.

Share your thoughts.

[Canary Mugume @CanaryMugume]

The Ugandan shilling according to a Bloomberg’s 22 October 2026 ‘is Africa’s worst-performing currency and has weakened nearly 16% so far this year.’ One of the main reasons, is the political limit; President Museveni’s explicit opposition to using Uganda’s foreign-exchange reserves to defend the shilling. The dollar is now 4288 UGX.

Is Musevenomics working?
