With smiles betraying their guilty conscience, they greeted the general, even when it wasn't necessary.

During the visit, General Muhoozi commended the participants for their dedication to incorporating new aspects of military marching and songs. He praised the band for mastering the new repertoire and encouraged them to maintain the high standard. The celebration is expected to be graced by President Yoweri Museveni.

To understand 2026, we must rise beyond the noise of rallies and slogans and interrogate the deeper forces shaping our democracy. 1. The Illusion of Choice vs. the Reality of Power Elections often present themselves as moments of choice. Yet in countries where state machinery heavily influences the electoral landscape, the ballot becomes less of a decision and more of a ritual. Uganda’s political terrain has long been defined by a central paradox: citizens are told they have power, yet the architecture of power often operates beyond their reach. Philosophers r...
