General Muhoozi to Attend Museveni-US Ambassador Talks
General Muhoozi is expected to attend the Museveni – US talks to clarify on what went wrong on both sides to solve on what went wrong
President Museveni is scheduled to meet US Ambassador William Popp to iron out diplomatic unease spat onto the table by a top official of the Ugandan government.
Thursday’s meeting at State House, Entebbe, will also be attended by the Chief of Defence Forces, General Muhoozi Kainerugaba, and the Minister of Foreign Affairs, General Jeje Odongo, among others.
The diplomacy meeting follows last Friday’s strange ultimatum issued by Gen. Muhoozi to Amb Popp to “personally apologise” to President Museveni and Ugandans or be kicked out of the country.

Without revealing much, Gen. Muhoozi, who is also the First Son, said Mr. Popp had disrespected his father and Ugandans by engaging in “undiplomatic conduct” in the country.
The highly sensitive posts on X, formerly known as Twitter, were deleted hours later, but the shadow of tension in the air did not just dissipate with the retraction. He had given Mr. Popp three days until 9 a.m. Monday.
The US Mission in Uganda has not made any official comment on the matter except to refute allegations by wheeler dealers who claimed Monday that Mr. Popp had bowed.
“This narrative is completely false,” the embassy said.
“Neither the US Embassy nor Amb Popp have received any formal request to apologise from the Ugandan government on any matter, nor has he apologised.
