Museveni's Uganda Vs. Mugabe's Zimbabwe

As Robert Mugabe's health declined (making him senile), First Lady Grace Mugabe effectively consolidated immense de facto power (just like Anita Among).

As Museveni approaches the end, it seems he wants his entire family to be in govt.

[NUP Podcast @NupPodcast]

Finally, Uganda has a minister who acknowledges that some government officials have overstayed their time in public office. Balaam Barugahara's remarks signal that Yoweri Museveni, who has served in his current position for 40 years, could soon be stepping down.

[UBC UGANDA @ubctvuganda]

.@BalaamBarugahar : “There are workers who have served in public office for 20 years in the same district. There should be a rotation of such officials, just as it is done for ministers, so that we can break the chain of corruption in local government.”

You probably don't know how Kampala is run.

[Brian The Mixologist🌼 @brianmixologist]

If there is something @EriasLukwago_ could have done for the people of Kampala is to apologize to them for the mess he kept Kampala in while he was demanding cars with personalised number plates & advancing his personal fights. Look at how Gulu’s outskirts look like 🙌

So the appointing authority didn't read the rules?

[Dr. Bireete Sarah @SarahBireete]

📌📌

According to the Rules of Procedure of Parliament, a non-member of Parliament should not be appointed Government Chief Whip in Uganda @ObothOboth @Thomas_Tayebwa @KagutaMuseveni

Rule 16(1)(a) of the Rules of Procedure of Parliament, which provides that there shall be:

“a Government Chief Whip appointed by Government from among the Members of Parliament representing the ruling party.”

This means the person must be:

a Member of Parliament, and
an MP representing the ruling party #NewCabinet2026
