Gen Muhoozi Rules out 2026 Presidential Bid; Endorses Museveni for 7th Term

Museveni was in 2021 reelected for a sixth term in office, having seized power by force of arms in 1986

Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba

The Chief of Defence Forces Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba has said he will not run for president in the 2026 elections.

"I would like to announce that I will not be on the ballot paper in 2026," said Muhoozi on his official X handle early Saturday morning,

"Almighty God told me to focus on His Army first," he added.

Muhoozi said he would throw his weight behind his 80-year-old father whom he implied would seek reelection in 2026.

Museveni was in 2021 reelected for a sixth term in office, having seized power in 1986.

"So, I fully endorse President Yoweri Museveni in the next elections," said Muhoozi.

It remains unclear why Muhoozi abandoned the presidential race.

Muhoozi's sudden u-turn will stun his fans, some of whom were already mobilising for his presidency.

In 2023, Muhoozi announced his 2026 presidential bid.

"In the name of Jesus Christ my God, in the name of all the young people of Uganda and the world and in the name of our great revolution, I will stand for the presidency in 2026," said Muhoozi.

"How many agree with me that our time has come? Enough of the old people ruling us. Dominating us. It's time for our generation to shine."

The 2026 polls are expected to attract the participation of singer-turned politician Robert Kyagulanyi alias Bobi Wine and Dr Kizza Besigye among others.

Muhoozi seemed to suggest he would continue serving as army chief.

"For me NOTHING on this earth is more Holier than UPDF!" said Muhoozi.

"So, I cannot think of a greater honour than being in UPDF. It is Holy Ground!! Godbless Holy UPDF and Sacred Uganda forever!!!"

[Rwanda Forum] Who is Axel Muganwa Rudakubana, the butcher of Southport, UK?

   If Axel Muganwa Rudakubana had been a son of a Hutu, what would have been the news headlines in Kagame's mouthpiece tabloids? Since Axel Rudakubana's parents are Tutsi genocide survivors, and his father, Alphonse Rudakubana, is a nephew of Wellars Gasamagera, the Secretary General of Rwanda's ruling party - RPF, the tragedy that occurred in the UK has not been mentioned by any tabloids or news outlets in Rwanda. However, had Axel Muganwa Rudakubana been a child of a Hutu, or a child of a Tutsi opposition figure, we can all guess the type of headline that would have appeared in the tabloid controlled by Criminal Paul Kagame. But now, they remain silent on this despicable tragedy. FYI...

Fwd: [Rwanda Forum] Kagame aritegura gupfa. Ashaje yanduranya cyane !

Kagame aritegura gupfa. Ashaje yanduranya cyane !   Ibimenyesto ni byinshi. Asigaye avuga Imana ariko yanageraho akayivugira ibitaribyo, akayibeshyera, akavuga abo atashimiye yabajyana mu muriro utazima.   Asigaye yiyambaza Imana kuko abona ko byarangiye, ubuzima burimo ku mucika. Imyaka ibaye myinshi  asuzugira amadini n'abaykorera, yarerekana ko amadini ntacyo amaze, ko ahubwo yakoze genocide.
