At 80, Museveni set for ‘second coming’ with political cards close to chest

Yoweri Museveni’s date of birth was always a subject of debate due to a lack of records. Then his family landed on September 15 as the month he was brought to this earth some 80 years ago.

Now an octogenarian, he plays fit-as-fiddle, sometimes appearing in short videos doing press-ups.

And this week, he told supporters he would “resurrect again” like the biblical Jesus. Only that his is a political resurrection—in Uganda.

Some concluded that he was referring to running again in the 2026 presidential election. But the old man has not said it in plain language.

Ruling NRM party spokesperson Emmanuel Dombo told The EastAfrican that there was no official declaration, yet.
