Reports circulated yesterday after exiled activist and author Kakwenza Rukirabashaija posted on the social media platform X alleging that President Yoweri Museveni was rushed to Mbuya Military Hospital at approximately 3 a.m. to bid farewell to First Lady Janet Museveni. According to the claim, she had reportedly been admitted to the facility for several days and was on oxygen support, with suggestions that it was too risky to transport her abroad for further treatment.
Although these reports remain unverified, they quickly triggered strong reactions online, with some individuals expressing premature celebration. Such responses raise important concerns about the state of public sentiment and discourse.
While the accuracy of these claims is still uncertain—and I personally do not condone celebrating the potential death of any individual—the situation prompts a broader reflection. It highlights the extent of public dissatisfaction and the intensity of emotions directed toward the leadership.
In light of this, one might ask the President and the First Family to consider the depth of public discontent and whether a peaceful transition of power could serve the nation’s best interests.
At this stage, however, a critical question remains: is the reported condition of Janet Museveni accurate, and is she still alive?
