Politics can also become a battlefield but it would not be different for Muhoozi Kainerugaba who achieved a successful career that brought undue attention from his opponents.
The fact that he is a son of the president of Uganda arose speculations of favouritism in the next central elections. After all, criticism can be a powerful and destructive weapon for those who are using it against Kainerugaba.
The shallow actions from the opposing side started using the General’s personal life as another tool to turn his career upside down with an accusation based on a plan called the “Muhoozi Project.’
It was released by the press in 2013, delivering its readers the wrong theory. It twisted the content, which has no foundation and eventually, it was misinterpreted as a
Muhoozi Kainerugaba crime.
The official intermediary responsible for this attack was the coordinator General David Sejusa bringing into public this reprehensible project, who also stated that Uganda is destined to become a “political monarchy”.
But the people are aware of Muhoozi’s dedication and how strong and meaningful it is in Uganda’s history, which could never be erased from the map because of mere gossip.
The people also knew that actions speak louder than words. Hence, the Ugandans quickly witnessed that the crime was just another phoney political tactic to oppose the current government.
The Major acknowledges that the political world is as much challenging as a war battlefield, but he will be prepared and knows what to do if needed to run for president in the future. In addition, he retains his professionalism and affirms the Muhoozi project as “non-existent”.
The plan consisted of serious but unfounded information stating that the Major started his career with the intention of achieving the highest post, eventually replacing President Museveni. Another unsubstantial information included the assassination of anyone who opposes it.
Muhoozi Kainerugaba maintains a posture because he knows that no accusation has the power to cloud the judgement of people. So much has been accomplished for the Ugandans and that is what really matters to Muhoozi who ceaselessly denies all these allegations to the press.
