In a twist worthy of a political thriller, the social media space in Uganda is abuzz following a controversial tweet from a verified X account named “Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba.” The tweet, accompanied by a photo of Hon. Frank Tumwebaze and Odrek Rwabwogo, carried a provocative caption: “Never trust a friend who chills with your enemy!” The tweet has ignited a firestorm of debate, with many speculating about a brewing battle for power succession.

This is just the latest in a series of incendiary tweets from the same account, which has repeatedly accused Rwabwogo of being a “thief” and stirred the pot of Ugandan political discourse. Many are wondering if this is more than just Twitter banter—could it be a signal of deeper political maneuvering?
Hon. David Kabanda, Secretary General of the PLU, was quick to jump into the fray and defend Tumwebaze. Not one to mince words, Kabanda dismissed the claims made by the account purportedly representing “Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba.”
“Frank Tumwebaze is one of our trusted elders in PLU. Whoever is managing this account should not create the impression that it is General Muhoozi’s official account,” Kabanda tweeted, calling for calm and urging the public not to be misled by what he suggests is an imposter account.
The tweet from the “Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba” account has sparked intense discussion among Ugandans, with some branding it as a sign of an impending power struggle. Others see it as a mere distraction or a deliberate ploy to sow discord. The real question remains: who is behind these tweets, and what are their intentions?
Stay tuned as we continue to monitor this unfolding saga.
