WATCH: Outgoing Patriotic League of Uganda (PLU) secretary general David Kabanda has revealed that he informed PLU Chairperson Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba of his intention to resign from the position before making the decision public. Speaking in an interview at the weekend, Kabanda claimed some individuals wanted to use the office for personal financial gain and viewed him as an obstacle. Gen Muhoozi has since appointed Fadil Twalla as the new PLU secretary general, noting in a post on X that Kabanda remains a member of the pressure group's Central Committee.

Today at State House Entebbe, I presided over the swearing-in of Hon. Justice Moses Kawumi Kazibwe as Deputy Chief Justice.
I congratulate Justice Kawumi and commend the Judiciary, under the leadership of Chief Justice Flavian Zeija, for the progress being made in fighting corruption, promoting Alternative Dispute Resolution, and embracing digitisation. These reforms are important in ensuring that justice is delivered efficiently, fairly, and without unnecessary delays.

When we came into government, corruption and excessive emphasis on technicalities were major weaknesses in the judicial system. I am therefore pleased to see continued efforts to strengthen substance, integrity, and accountability in the administration of justice.
I wish Justice Kawumi success as he undertakes this important responsibility.

“You cannot say that you have Shs158 billion to purchase cars for MPs and then claim that you do not have Shs 28 billion to pay medical interns’ allowances, with the excuse that it would crush the economy. By the way, doctors are rarely in the hospitals. It is the medical interns who are everywhere doing the donkey work,” Archbishop Stephen Kaziimba Mugalu

In 2011, vetting committee of parliament rejected 4 ministers : Saleh Kamba, Muyanja Mbabali, Flavia Munaaba and James Kakooza. It is therefore strange to say that someone said “they must fail one person each time !”

[Muhoozi Kainerugaba @mkainerugaba]

My beloved son, Ruhamya, is doing an excellent job in Sandhurst. All good Ugandans should pray for him every day.

[Muhoozi Kainerugaba @mkainerugaba]

He has been the best Minister in our government for the past 5 years. I want to be the first to endorse him for Speaker of Parliament (2026-2031). God bless Hon.Oboth-Oboth!

[Natasha Museveni Karugire @Nyinancweende]

Salute to the CDF @mkainerugaba for the stellar parades and the synchronized work of the airforce and the integrity of the armed forces. Salute to @KagutaMuseveni the CIC, Mzee wa kazi and my own personal hero. Praise to the LORD GOD for this success for Uganda and for the NRM.

President @KagutaMuseveni’s return to Uganda following his participation in the Africa We Build Summit 2026 in Nairobi, where African leaders and investors convened to advance infrastructure development and industrialisation across the continent.

When they were young, I used to tease them that they will be earth-shakers because, by some coincidence, they were all born on or near very important historical dates. Muhoozi was born on the 24th of April, 1974 at Ocean Road Hospital in Dar-es-Salaam. Maama had made arrangements with a Dutch lady that was staying in the flat above ours in Kurasini to drive her to hospital when the time for okurumwa (birth pains) came. In the night of the 23rd of April, Maama sent me to call the Dutch friend. The Dutch friend drove her to the Hospital. The following morning, I went to the Hospital and Muhoozi was already born. I spent the day with them and came back to the flat at night.

The following morning, I rang comrade SamoraMachel, the Revolutionary leader of the Mozambique Liberation to tell him about our happy family news. He picked the phone, but advised me to ring him another day because on that day he was busy following the great news of the anti-fascist Revolution that was going on in Portugal that led to the collapse of the 500years Portuguese African Empire. Amazing- regarding the double blessings to we the freedom fighters- the 24th and 25th of April, 1974.

Natasha was born on the 12th of March 1977 at Moshi Christian Centre Hospital. That is the day in 1984, I departed from our base at Kawumu Luwero on the last external mission to get guns from the late Muammar Gaddaffi. That, eventually decisively contributed to the NRM victory in 1986.

Patience was born on the 9th of May,1978, at MuhimbiliHospital- Victory Day in Europe, against Hitler and Kyaremeera was born on the 30th of June, 1980, the same date as the historic independence of Belgian Congo (DRC) IN 1960. I share with our fellow Ugandans and Africans our little jokes in the family. Congratulations Muogi, his wife, children and siblings on this milestone.

Greetings fellow Ugandans, fellow Africans and especially, the Bazzukulu.

I am sending out this message to, first of all, thank God for giving Maama and myself our wonderful children: Muhoozi (Muogi), Natasha (Kukuru), Patience (Pusi) and Kyaremeera (Kyinini)., protecting them and prospering them.  Secondly, I want to thank Maama for looking after them especially for the years 1981-86 when she was the only parent near them. Thirdly, I salute the children for going through the school systems and branching out successfully in the different fields of life – family, career, etc.

Fourthly, I thank the Ugandans and some of the Africans for standing with and supporting our family and Political movement in the various endeavours we have been undertaking with them.

On this occasion, on the 24th of April 2026, I want to congratulate Gen. Muhoozi (Muogi) on this 52nd birthday. These children, in particular Muhoozi, were born in the resistance, grew up in the resistance, and, in various ways, have made significant contribution to the resistance. Gen. Muhoozi has made significant contribution to fighting corruption in the Army and increasing the lethality of the UPDF.
