Fresh Trouble for Museveni as he Gets Hit With a Major Warning of His Party Dividing in Heated Races

Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni faces fresh political trouble as experts warn of growing divisions within the ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM) party.

The internal tensions have been sparked by intense competition for positions in the party’s Central Executive Committee (CEC).

As the race heats up, experts caution that deepening factionalism could weaken the party’s unity ahead of the 2026 general elections.

Several senior NRM members are vying for influential positions, leading to political rivalries that could shake the party’s stability.

Political analysts argue that the divisions stem from long-standing grievances over internal democracy and succession concerns.

Some factions are reportedly pushing for leadership changes within the party, while others remain loyal to Museveni’s continued rule.

The growing cracks in NRM have raised concerns over its ability to maintain dominance in Uganda’s political landscape.

Observers warn that if left unchecked, the internal wrangles could embolden the opposition and weaken the party’s grassroots support.

Museveni, who has led Uganda for nearly four decades, now faces the challenge of balancing party unity while maintaining his grip on power.

The upcoming CEC elections will be a crucial test for NRM’s cohesion and future political direction.
