First Son Muhoozi Kainerugaba: Banyankore Migrated from Egypt

First son and Commander Land Forces (CLF) Lt Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba claims some of the first Banyankore settlers originated from Egypt.

Lt Kainerugaba says he had gleaned several pieces of history from his grandfather — President Yoweri Kaguta Tibuhaburwa Museveni’s father — Amos Kaguta when he was still alive.

The first son says that Mzee Amos Kaguta had told him how some of the Banyankore ancestors had trekked from Egypt to settle in the land of milk and honey.

Kainerugaba went on to say he had no issues interacting and dealing with Egyptians when his father and Commander-in-Chief of armed forces Gen Museveni sent him there for a military course.

Given that history, at least as told by his grandfather and believed by him, Kainerugaba says whoever touches Egypt will face his wrath.

“My late grandfather Mzee Amos used to tell us that the first Banyankore came from Egypt. When I was there for a course (for 6 months) I never had a problem with any Egyptian,” said the first son.

“If anybody thinks of fighting Egypt, he should know he will be fighting Uganda as well.”
