Uganda’s President, Museveni reportedly appoints daughter as Governor of Central Bank

President Yoweri Museveni of Uganda has reportedly appointed his daughter, Ms. Natasha Museveni, as the new Governor of the Central Bank of Uganda.

This decision comes amidst accusations of nepotism and favoritism within the government, as President Museveni also appointed his wife, Janet Kainembabazi Museveni, as the Minister of Education.

Adding to the familial appointments, President Museveni has named his son, Yoweri Museveni, as the Chief of Defense and Military, further fueling criticism of dynastic tendencies within African leadership.

The appointments have reignited discussions about Africa’s struggle with dictatorship, with many questioning the fairness and transparency of the selection process for key government roles.

As speculation mounts, attention is now focused on who might be next in line for a prominent position within President Museveni’s administration.

  1. When is there a need to expose oneself with such appointments to such public scrutiny and ridicule? If it’s money that the family of the president is interested in, I guess they can even set up their money printing facility at home for that purpose.
