“I Don’t Want To Hear That PLU No Sense In Australia” Ambassador Hyuya Slams MK Presidential Ambitions , Suspends PLU Activities In Australia

Uganda’s Ambassador to Australia, H.E. Dorothy Samalie Hyuya, has reportedly ridiculed Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba’s presidential ambitions, comparing the prospect of him becoming Uganda’s president to impossibility.

Hyuya reportedly made the remarks during a meeting weeks ago with Ugandan legislators led by Ofwono Opondo, who were visiting Australia, in a discussion that has since drawn attention to disagreements surrounding Muhoozi’s political ambitions and the activities of his supporters abroad.

The controversy gained momentum after Opondo returned to Kampala and disclosed details of the meeting, raising questions about the ambassador’s position on the political movement associated with the Chief of Defence Forces (CDF).

According to the account of the meeting, Hyuya also announced the suspension of all Patriotic League of Uganda (PLU) diaspora activities in Australia, reportedly warning that their continuation could damage Uganda’s diplomatic relationship with the Australian government.

The reported remarks represent a significant development in the debate over Muhoozi’s political future, given his position as the country’s military chief and his status as the son of President Yoweri Museveni.

Opondo, who led the visiting legislators, reportedly wondered where Hyuya derives the energy to engage in such discussions, adding another dimension to the controversy surrounding the meeting.

Upon returning to Kampala, Opondo also called for an audit of the finances of Uganda’s embassy in Australia, raising questions about the management and accountability of public resources at the diplomatic mission.

However, the specific financial concerns prompting his request for an audit were not detailed in the account available. An audit would be expected to establish whether embassy funds have been properly managed and whether any financial irregularities exist.

The reported developments have placed Hyuya under scrutiny, with the controversy combining sensitive questions about diplomatic conduct, public expenditure and the political activities of Ugandans living abroad.

The PLU, which is associated with Muhoozi’s political mobilisation, has attracted attention as discussions about his possible succession to the presidency continue. The reported suspension of its Australian diaspora activities could complicate efforts to organise supporters outside Uganda if the decision is formally implemented.

Diplomatic missions are responsible for promoting Uganda’s interests and maintaining constructive relationships with host governments. Any decision to restrict political or diaspora activities therefore raises questions about the reasons behind the action, the authority under which it was taken and its implications for Ugandans living in Australia.

The meeting also featured Ambassador Patrick Guma Muganda and Ms. Susan Jemimah Okodi, although further details about their contributions have not been established.

Hyuya’s statements are likely to attract attention because it directly challenges the prospect of Muhoozi succeeding his father, a subject that remains politically sensitive in Uganda.

Meanwhile, Opondo’s call for an embassy financial audit introduces a separate accountability question that authorities may need to address.

The central issues now are whether the reported suspension was formally authorised, what prompted Opondo’s demand for an audit and how Uganda’s diplomatic authorities will respond to the controversy.

Hyuya’s reported remarks, if confirmed, could intensify the debate over the relationship between Uganda’s diplomatic service, domestic political movements and the country’s future leadership.Uganda’s Ambassador to Australia, H.E.
