KAMPALA UGANDA The head of the Patriotic League of Uganda (PLU), Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba, has publicly endorsed Hon. Oboth-Oboth for Speaker of the 12th Parliament.

In a post on X, formerly Twitter, on Friday morning, Gen. Muhoozi described Oboth-Oboth as “the best Minister in our government for the past 5 years.” He added, “I want to be the first to endorse him for Speaker of Parliament (2026-2031). God bless Hon. Oboth-Oboth!”

The endorsement comes as Parliament prepares for the 12th term covering 2026-2031. 

In the same series of posts, Gen. Muhoozi also weighed in on other political matters, stating that “There is no Speakership battle. Our God Jesus Christ won that battle a long time ago. We already have our new Speaker. Supported by UPDF!” He further said, “We have already made our decision on the new Speaker [a man]. Men were born to lead. That’s the natural order of things.”

Hon. Oboth-Oboth currently serves as Minister of Defence and Veteran Affairs.
