Yoweri Museveni, born on August 15, 1944, is the long-standing president of Uganda, having led the country since 1986. He rose to power after leading the National Resistance Army (NRA) in a guerrilla war that toppled the government of Milton Obote. Museveni initially gained praise for stabilizing Uganda, implementing economic reforms, and significantly reducing the spread of HIV/AIDS through public health campaigns.
Under his leadership, Uganda experienced periods of economic growth and regional influence, though his tenure has been marked by growing authoritarianism. Museveni has altered the constitution to extend his rule, most notably by removing presidential age limits. His presidency has been criticized for political repression, human rights abuses, and election irregularities.
Despite this, Museveni remains a dominant figure in Ugandan politics and has played a key role in regional peacekeeping efforts in East Africa. His presidency continues to shape Uganda’s political landscape.
