Muhoozi Moves to Dissolve PACEID and Strip Rwabwogo of Power in Dramatic Showdown

Uganda’s military chief Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba announced the dissolution of a presidential advisory body on Friday, directing its budgets and functions handed over to a rival government programme.

NUP Backs Olara Otunnu for UN Secretary-General Role, Calls Out Uganda’s Human Rights Record

Uganda’s National Unity Platform has thrown its weight behind Olara Otunnu’s bid for the top job at the United Nations, arguing his decades of advocacy for human dignity make him the right man for the moment.
