Ugandan First Son, General Muhoozi Kainerugaba, has issued a stern warning to those spreading false rumours about President Yoweri Museveni’s health.

“I want to warn those spreading false rumours in Kenya that my father, President Yoweri Museveni, is critically ill. This is both criminal and reckless,” Muhoozi stated.

He further cautioned that continued silence from President William Ruto’s government while such misinformation spreads could be interpreted as an act of hostility towards Uganda.

“In Uganda, it is against the law to discuss or speculate about the President’s health or death. We are already gathering information about individuals sharing this misinformation online,” he added.
