By : JP king maker : The crown media East Africa
Kampala, Uganda – In a bold and commanding statement, General Muhoozi Kainerugaba has urged the Uganda Police Force to intensify their commitment to maintaining law and order in the country. Taking to his widely followed Twitter account, General Muhoozi declared that 2025 would mark a significant turning point for Uganda in understanding the rule of law and ensuring discipline in public discourse.
The General stated, “2025 is the year Ugandans will learn what the rule of law and order means! Any Police Commander who does not shut down any public meeting where the President, CDF, senior Government officials, or member of the First Family is being abused will face strong actions!”
This statement underscores his firm stance on upholding respect for authority and safeguarding the dignity of leaders. According to General Muhoozi, the Uganda Police must act decisively against gatherings or actions that promote disrespect, abuse, or disorder.
Public Reaction
The General's remarks have sparked widespread debate among Ugandans. Supporters argue that this directive will strengthen governance and deter harmful rhetoric that undermines the nation’s leadership. Critics, however, raise concerns about the implications for free speech and assembly rights, both of which are enshrined in the Ugandan Constitution.
"Respect for leaders is important, but silencing public opinion could erode democratic values," remarked Sarah Achieng, a human rights advocate.
Implications for the Police Force
Police commanders across the country now face the challenge of interpreting and implementing the directive without overstepping their bounds. Senior officials in the Uganda Police Force have not yet issued a formal response to General Muhoozi’s statement, but sources indicate that discussions are ongoing to align operational policies with the directive.
Political Context
General Muhoozi, a prominent figure in Uganda’s military and political landscape, is no stranger to making strong public statements. His calls for order come amidst heightened political activity as Uganda heads toward the 2026 general elections, where tensions between government and opposition forces are expected to rise.
What’s Next?
As the country prepares for 2025, all eyes are on the Uganda Police Force and how they will balance their role as enforcers of the law with their obligation to protect civil liberties. General Muhoozi’s statement has set the tone for a year where respect for authority, law, and order will likely dominate the national conversation.
