Uganda’s Electoral Commission has formally approved President Yoweri Museveni’s re-election candidacy. The decision follows a review of his eligibility, based on age limits stipulated by the constitution. Museveni, who has served as president for over two decades, is expected to seek reelection early next year, potentially extending his tenure to approximately half a century in office. This move reflects a continued emphasis on consolidating power and extending the presidency’s historical significance within Uganda’s political landscape.
