𝐀𝐫𝐜𝐡𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐬; In 1980, as a young boy, I found myself with my father, President @KagutaMuseveni , and my mother, Maama @JanetMuseveni , in a life-threatening situation at a roadblock in Kireka, Kampala. Obote’s UNLA soldiers stopped our car, searched us, and detained us by the roadside in the bush for hours. The tension was thick we were at the mercy of hostile forces who seemed ready to eliminate us.
We sat there from late afternoon into the night, the danger growing by the minute. But bravery and loyalty intervened. Afande Fred Rwigyema, together with Salim Saleh and a small team of dedicated escorts, learned of our plight. They moved swiftly under the cover of darkness, confronted the roadblock with weapons ready, and secured our release in a daring rescue that left the soldiers bewildered.
That day, Afande Rwigyema’s courage and quick thinking saved our lives almost by a hair’s breadth. His heroism left an indelible mark on me as a child and inspired my own path into military service. He remains one of the greatest soldiers I have ever known.~ Gen @mkainerugaba

I want to thank Mzee, my family members, colleagues in the UPDF, all government officials and very importantly the thousands of friends and supporters who sent me birthday wishes today. Thank you all so much. All your expressions of goodwill, love and appreciation mean a lot to me. God bless you all and God bless Uganda.
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.
Where were you when we were studying, Kabanda asks voters? This is the arrogance we have been talking about but he said we were being paid to attack him. 😅😅
