International media coverage is not good for Uganda and the Media Centre will take several months if not years to undo the damage. Now @TonyNatif and company need to travel and promote Uganda abroad.

Uganda's leading independent media group said it was under "military siege" on Sunday after the army chief ordered the shutdown of its newspapers, TV station and radio outlets.

Muhoozi Kainerugaba, the head of Uganda's military and President Yoweri Museveni's son, has asserted growing control in recent months, ordering the arrests of politicians, activists and now a media shutdown.

"NTV and Moniter (sic) are being shut down from today!" Kainerugaba wrote on X, referring to NTV Uganda and the Daily Monitor, both part of the Nation Media Group.

From inside the palace: Uganda President Yoweri Museveni's son-in-law Odrek Rwabwogo says he's extremely worried to the core about the direction the country is taking.

Rwabwogo has asked Ugandans to unite and speak out.

He says the army and NRM's vote rigging, bribery, ballot stuffing, shooting of voters in the 2026 general elections and monetisation of the country's politics are a bigger threat to Uganda than foreign invasion, flooding, and earthquake, because now it doesn't pay to be good at what you do and as such, we can't get good leaders, good teachers, good doctors anymore.

[Wilfred Businge @MrBusinge]

Is UCC aware that the Nation Media Group was shut down?

[Edris Kiggundu @ekiggundu]

So Gen Muhoozi says he is closing Daily Monitor and NTV, and people cheer him in the comment section. There is something terribly wrong with our society. Some of the people cheering MK's actions today will be the ones wishing Monitor or NTV...

Security forces have surrounded the Kampala offices of Nation Media Group Uganda after Uganda's Chief of Defence Forces, Muhoozi Kainerugaba, declared on X that NTV Uganda, Spark TV and the Daily Monitor had been shut down.

[NTV Kenya @ntvkenya]

NTV Uganda and Spark TV go off air as Chief of Defence Forces Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba orders a shutdown of NMG Uganda operations and barricades Kampala premises.

[Erich Mboowa @erich_mboowa]

And just like that, NTV and Daily Monitor have been closed.

Very unfortunate times! 😔
