President Yoweri Kaguta Tibuhaburwa Museveni has revealed that he preferrs to call his son Lt Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba, the commander of the UPDF Land Forces, Muwooji.
On April 24, Museveni hosted Rwanda’s President Paul Kagame, eminent leaders of the Government of Uganda, distinguished guests in their respective capacities, family, friends and relatives to a private dinner in honour of Lt Gen Kainerugaba. (Read Story Here).
It was during this dinner that Museveni revealed how he started to call Muhoozi Muwooji.
The name has everything to do with Museveni’s neighbor during exile in Tanzania.
“You, people, call him Muhoozi but I call him Muwooji because while in exile in Dar-es-Salaam, our neighbour was Gen Tito Okello (RIP), he couldn’t pronounce the name Muhoozi. Gen Tito would say Mama Muwooji while referring to Mama Janet,” explained Museveni.
“Unfortunately, he is not here, but I am happy to be here with his son Okello (Oryem). Okello was a teenager when Muhoozi was a child and would stay with Muhoozi and siblings while we were away.”
The president previously explained the meaning of the name Muhoozi. (Read Story Here).
