A startling revelation has come to light courtesy of General Muhoozi Kainerugaba, the Chief of Defense Forces (CDF) of the Uganda People’s Defense Forces (UPDF) and First Son.
Muhoozi confessed that he has long harbored a desire to take drastic action against Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu, alias Bobi Wine, the opposition leader and National Unity Platform (NUP) principal.
However, he claims that his father, President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni, has been the sole obstacle preventing him from carrying out this threat.
“Kabobi knows that THE ONLY person protecting him from me is my father. If Mzee was not there, I would cut off his head today!” Muhoozi Posted On X.
“You’re shocked by that? I haven’t even started on that Kabobi fool…let him run to Mzee for refuge as usual.” He Added.
In a series of provocative posts on X (formerly Twitter), General Muhoozi alleged that Bobi Wine has been abusing them despite their initial support for his rise to prominence as the opposition’s top leader. He claimed that they had provided Bobi Wine with substantial financial backing to challenge Dr. Kizza Besigye’s position as the opposition kingpin.
“It was actually our idea (me and other Generals). We convinced Mzee that we can use Kabobi to remove Besigye from being kingpin of the opposition. After we supported him with alot of money (and he succeeded) he started abusing us.” Muhoozi Posted.
Bobi Wine responded to General Muhoozi’s ominous threats by expressing his deep concern for his safety. He alleged that General Muhoozi and President Museveni have been responsible for the deaths of hundreds of Ugandans. Undaunted, Bobi Wine declared his refusal to be intimidated by the regime.
“The threat by Museveni’s son (who also heads Uganda’s military) to behead me is not something I take lightly, given that many have been killed by him and his father, and considering their several attempts at my life. I REFUSE to be intimidated by the cowardly regime. The world is watching.” Bobi Wine Said.
In retaliation, Muhoozi mocked Bobi Wine by posting; “Finally! I woke you up? Before I behead you, repay us the money we loaned you.”
The exchange between General Muhoozi and Bobi Wine has sparked widespread concern and highlighted the deep-seated tensions between the ruling government and the opposition. This development comes on the heels of General Muhoozi’s recent pledge to address the pressing issue of Kampala’s deteriorating roads.
On 5th January 2025, Chief of Defence Forces (CDF) General Muhoozi Kainerugaba took to his X account (formerly Twitter) to address the pressing issue of Kampala’s deteriorating roads.
In his post, Muhoozi called on the public to identify and report major roads requiring urgent repair, pledging swift action. He stated: “Send me all main roads in Kampala that need to be repaired ASAP. God willing, we shall work on as many of them as possible.”
This announcement has been well-received by road users, who have long expressed frustration over the poor state of roads in the capital. Frequent potholes, flooding, and lack of maintenance have caused significant inconveniences for motorists and pedestrians, prompting calls for urgent intervention.
Muhoozi’s move follows a series of infrastructure challenges exacerbated by adverse weather conditions.
