President Museveni Continues His Meetings With Army Commanders Across Uganda as Entire Security System is Put on "Standby Class 1 Alert".



President Museveni will continue traversing the country speaking to army officers, meeting them and galvanising the forces, Nile Post has learnt.

This comes hot on the heels of a rumour that there is a general unsettlement in the army, and that the men in uniform have been put on a rare form of standby class one order, only given during anticipated eventualities.


According to information obtained by Nile Post, the president is set to meet army chiefs this week, including a group from Internal Security Organisation (ISO) and senior officers in Jinja. Nile Post can not ably confirm when, but a source from  ISO confirmed the meeting.



Next Media Journalist Canary Mugume has also told Nile Post that there is a planned meeting for security chiefs in Ntungamo, where President Museveni is holding base following his return by road from Kigali, Rwanda.



“Pres. Museveni is back in the country from Kigali. But sources on his advance team say he will be back in Entebbe on Monday – for cabinet. This means that this meeting of army chiefs might be held outside Kampala. Most probably in Ntungamo. (if all factors remain constant)”

According to sources inside the UPDF, the president has called for a meeting of security service chiefs scheduled in Ntungamo. The source however does not fully confirm the time of the meeting.

The meeting follows a radio call message from the 2IC Land Forces Commander, issuing an order for all units to maintain standard class alertness in their deployment, literally coded as Standby class 1.

This is the rarest and most serious form of order from above, and it usually signifies a classified operation of higher magnitude.

Lt Gen Muhoozi Tweets

In the face of the recent happenings, the tweets of the commander of Land Forces Lt Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba have not helped.

The man charged with the movement of the forces has been tweeting images of the deceased American President J.F Kennedy, while on one hand revealing there seem to be many things going wrong.

Lt Gen Muhoozi talks of traitors, and people fighting him and his father.

“In the coming battle, let the people of Uganda and Rwanda support me… like I have fought for them. Let us deal with the traitors once and for all!” Lt Gen Muhoozi tweeted.

“Those who try to come between my father and me will learn a very bitter lesson. Where were they when we were refugees? Tutawona wale Mungu anapenda!” he added.

Seasoned journalist Timothy Kalyegira has been weighing in on the matter, claiming that there is unsettlement with the UPDF, caused by the First Son Lt Gen Muhoozi.

“Army fed up with MK’s birthday events and his openly voicing presidential ambitions, against army rules. M7, as a result, orders MK not to attend the Kiruhura birthday rally, but anger in the army remains high. A week later, the army is put on the highest level of alertness,” Kalyegira stated.

“I don’t know if we should worry, but what I can tell you who are reading this is that inside the army, the mood/morale is like what it was in the UNLA around early 1984. Not yet an all-out crisis, but certainly no longer the familiar, calm normal. You can quote me on that,” he added.

Previously, President Museveni traversed the country meeting security chiefs from Elgon, western, Rwenzori, and Eastern and Acholi regions.

Museveni in his tweets indicated he was thanking and motivating the army.

However, this is not the first time President Museveni is visiting army officers. In 2019, the president went on a country-wide tour of barracks starting with Kakiri in Wakiso District.

During the time, Museveni was emphasising ideology.

UGANDA ELECTORAL COMMISSION TO ELIMINATE NATIONAL IDENTIFICATION CARDS (IDs) FOR 2021 GENERAL ELECTIONS.

The elimination of using National IDs (Ndagamuntu) for the 2021 elections should not have come as a surprise. One would be very NAIVE to think that Bobi Wine has not prepared for this in his Business Plan under the RISK section. It is public knowledge that our EC is not independent.  It is also public knowledge that Military Dictator Yoweri Museveni will never lose an election. What stunned us this morning is when we noticed that on social media, people were mocking Bobi with his "get your Ndagamuntu".  We are on record for saying to all Our readers that the National ID is like Apartheid in South Africa. Students of History would know how those IDs were being used to arrest people, deny them jobs, deny them basic services. Consequently, Bobi was not wrong and will never be wrong on the Ndagamuntu. Except the ones attacking him and mocking him forget that in Uganda, now, no National ID (Ndagamuntu), no service.  If you have not been denied registering your child i...

Here is Why Our Utterances For Praying Jesus And God To Come Liberate Ugandans, May Be Misplaced. This Phrase is like inform of a Letter To Some Categorized Section Of Ugandans.

Last week of March, a friend told me to pray for Uganda.  I told him that he was an Idiot and we have prayed for too long and we are still hungry and sick and Jesus is not coming soon to liberate us. He then ignored the STUPID and sent me a picture we all now know.  It got me totally messed up.  This guy was telling me to pray then sends a picture of men bowing down in blood.  He might have meant guns but I blocked him because his utterances of praying for Uganda were misplaced. I unblocked him 3 weeks later and asked him about praying and assassinations.  His reply "eithrr prayers or guns or both". I hate violence with a passion.  So he is now blocked in like FOREVER. Do you feel safe?  Do not feel safe. Uganda regim...
