In a grotesque display of patronizing arrogance, President Yoweri Museveni desperately cloaks his authoritarian rule under the guise of benevolent grandparenthood. Young Ugandans are tearing apart this charade, loudly rejecting his paternalistic farce. Museveni, the fossilized relic clinging to power since 1986, faces an uprising from a generation disgusted by his nauseatingly condescending “muzzukulu” rhetoric.
This septuagenarian tyrant recently applauded his security forces for brutalizing over 100 protesters. These so-called “foreign-funded” rioters, who dared to march against the government’s entrenched corruption, were met with Museveni’s signature brutality. His disdain for these brave citizens is palpable, yet unsurprising from a dictator who revels in suppressing dissent with teargas and batons.
The youth, disillusioned and defiant, see through Museveni’s fraudulent grandpa act. They demand genuine leadership and accountability, not the empty platitudes of a despotic relic. Social media is ablaze with condemnation. Jacky Kemigisa, Aisha Nassanga, and Charles Gava have shredded his pretense, spotlighting the dictator’s failure to tackle corruption while hypocritically blaming foreign forces for his woes.
Sakwah Ngoma’s cutting critique echoes the sentiments of many: Museveni, the self-proclaimed liberator, has morphed into the very dictator he once opposed. His warnings of “playing with fire” only fuel the youth’s resolve, proving that Museveni’s reign of terror is on borrowed time. Ugandans are fed up with being infantilized by a tyrant whose empty promises and despotic tactics reek of desperation and deceit.
