But during the opening NBS Frontline on Thursday night, host Charles Mwanguhya Mpagi asked Mao to respond to the first son’s tweet.

Mao said Kainerugaba could be a prophet on top of the soldier, military scholar and diplomat that he knows him to be.

The DP leader said it means there is something of value in him.

“I know him as a military scholar and a soldier, and as a diplomat these days. Let’s see if he is also a prophet,” said Mao.

“It is good to be talked about, nobody kicks a dead dog.”

Meanwhile, Lt Gen Kainerugaba has said he can defeat the Besigye-Bobi Wine-led opposition in an election. (Read story here).
