Muhoozi To Rule For 10 Years Without Elections – M7 Assistant Confirms

During a press briefing in Kampala on Wednesday, November 11, President Yoweri Museveni’s Special Assistant Yiga Kisakyamukama announced his support for Chief of Defence Forces (CDF) Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba to succeed his father as Uganda’s next president.

According to a report by Mulengera News, Kisakyamukama made several major claims regarding Uganda’s political transition

Kisakyamukama stated that Gen. Muhoozi will soon be appointed Vice President, allowing President Museveni to hand over power to him before the scheduled 2031 general elections.

He claimed that once Gen. Muhoozi assumes office under the NRM, Uganda will suspend elections for 10 years to focus on national rebuilding without campaign interference.

He alleged that thousands of NRM cadres will be convened at the National Leadership Institute in Kyankwanzi within three weeks to receive talking points aimed at popularizing a Muhoozi presidency.

Kisakyamukama also noted he dropped his previous opposition to the Patriotic League of Uganda (PLU) following the replacement of former Secretary General David Kabanda with Fadhil Twalla.

While Kisakyamukama framed the transition as “unstoppable,” State House, the NRM leadership, and the Electoral Commission have not issued any official statements confirming plans to alter the presidential succession timeline or suspend constitutional elections.
