UGANDA IS ON FIRE BECAUSE OF MY BIRTHDAY: Watch First Son Muhoozi Kainerugaba Addressing His Supporters at Kololo

First son Lt Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba has addressed his supporters at the Kololo Independence Grounds in Kampala as he flagged off hundreds of people for a marathon which is part of his 48th birthday celebrations happening on April 23.

Lt Gen Kainerugaba, also the commander of UPDF land forces, came dressed in his military uniform.

He told his supporters he was honoured by their decision to celebrate him.

The president’s son also said the marathon and the MKat48 celebrations were not about him as a person but about Uganda.

A marathon has ended and Muhoozi has invited his supporters to Lugogo Cricket Oval for more fun and entertainment.
