Ugandan writer A.K. Kaiza:
“Always knew, it would turn around and bite us.
If you had watched the Museveni regime for the past three decades, you would have noticed, his rule shifted gear in consequential ways.”

It seems no one can replace Afande Museveni.
He has been the leader of #Uganda during the war and he seems hell-bent to continue leading Uganda until he dies.

In 2005, when he wanted to prolong his stay in power, President Museveni, just as he was to do with Ms. Anite 12years later, picked a then less known Kabula County representative, James Kakooza, to move a motion in Parliament for removal of term limits https://www.theelephant.info/features/2017/06/23/no-one-can-replace-afande-museveni-the-ugandan-dictator-keeps-going-and-going-and-going/
In 2017, he changed the constitution to remove age limits to himself to seek re-election at the next polls scheduled for 2021. https://www.theelephant.info/features/2017/10/05/fighting-the-good-fight-why-we-should-welcome-the-brawl-in-ugandas-parliament/

@HEBobiwine has inspired very young people that he can actually make them get what they want and he seems to give them an inspiration that it’s possible to come out of the ghetto and become something.
