Youth Drive the Vote as Museveni-Wine Clash Looms in Uganda
TL;DR Summary
Uganda heads to a presidential election with a generational clash: 81-year-old incumbent Yoweri Museveni seeks a seventh term against 43-year-old Bobi Wine, in a country where the median age is around 17 and young people are driving the campaigns. The race pits continuity versus change amid a heavily managed political environment and concerns over repression, with succession chatter around Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba adding to the tension about life after Museveni.
