Uganda’s tweeting general escalates threat as power dynasty tightens its grip

Uganda’s army chief Muhoozi Kainerugaba, son of President Museveni, drew attention by threatening opposition leader Bobi Wine with castration and branding him an outlaw, a move seen as part of a broader dynastic power bloc described by analysts as the 'unholy trinity' of Museveni, Muhoozi and Salim Saleh. The posts, many later deleted, come amid a contested election, reports of rights abuses by security forces, and an internet blackout; Kainerugaba later apologised for misinformation and said he would reduce his social-media activity.
