About Yoweri Museveni

General Yoweri Kaguta Tibuhaburwa Museveni (born 15 September 1944) is a Ugandan politician and retired senior military officer who has served as President of Uganda since 1986. Museveni was involved in rebellions that toppled Ugandan leaders Idi Amin (1971–79) and Milton Obote (1980–85) before he captured power in 1986. In the mid- to late 1990s, Museveni was celebrated by the West as part of a new generation of African leaders. Museveni's presidency has been marred by involvement in the Congo wars, the Rwandan Civil War, and other Great Lakes region conflicts; the rebellion in Northern Uganda by the Lord's Resistance Army, which caused a humanitarian emergency; and the suppression of political opposition and constitutional amendments scrapping presidential term limits (2005) and the presidential age limit (2017).
