Kampala, Uganda – Uganda’s military chief, Muhoozi Kainerugaba, has sparked outrage after publicly expressing a desire to behead a prominent opposition leader.
Kainerugaba, widely seen as the likely successor to his father, President Yoweri Museveni, has drawn criticism for his provocative social media posts.
This latest incendiary remark underscores the tense political climate in Uganda, where opposition figures have frequently faced intimidation and harassment. The statement has prompted calls for accountability from human rights organizations and the opposition, as they condemn what they describe as “toxic rhetoric” that threatens Uganda’s democratic fabric. 
Despite the backlash, Kainerugaba has continued to use social media to defend his controversial views, intensifying fears over the state of free speech and political dissent in the country.
