@maxi.sensa: IN THE NEWS: Gen. Kahinda Otafiire has consistently expressed skepticism about Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba's suitability for the presidency. Otafiire has maintained that leading Uganda requires far more than military credentials, arguing that a president must possess political experience, institutional restraint, and the temperament to unite a deeply diverse nation. His opposition has never appeared to be personal; rather, he has repeatedly stated that he simply does not believe Muhoozi is the right person to lead Uganda. Recent events have reignited that debate. Muhoozi's repeated public threats, confrontational rhetoric, and controversial commands directed at political opponents and even senior figures within the ruling establishment have intensified concerns about his judgment and leadership style. His latest public clash with Otafiire has further exposed divisions within the NRM over succession and the appropriate role of military authority in political affairs The darker reality is that history shows a nation cannot be governed by force alone. Military command and civilian leadership require different qualities. A commander gives orders; a president must build consensus, tolerate criticism, protect constitutional institutions, and govern all citizens equally, including those who disagree with him. When political disagreements are increasingly met with threats instead of dialogue, concerns naturally grow about the future of democratic governance, civil liberties, and national unity. Those are precisely the kinds of concerns Otafiire has long suggested Ugandans should seriously consider. #m7mustgo #freeallpoliticalprisonersinuganda
