“Lt Gen Muhoozi was a gift to us in our young days of struggle. He was born on 24th April 1974 at Kurasini, Dar es Salam, Mama Janet was driven to the hospital by a Dutch Lady,” said Museveni.

“The following day, I rang Samora Machel to inform him of the news.”

The president also described his son as the earliest kadogo of the Resistance, only second to Julius Kategaya who took another path.
