"They're Plotting to End My Life" M7 Orders Arrest of 8 Senior Army Officers in Subversion Crackdown

This week, reports from Uganda have revealed that more senior army officers have been arrested over suspected subversion.What started with the arrest of two officers has now grown to eight, as six more were detained at Mbuya Military Headquarters in Kampala.

The Mbuya base is the main command center for the Uganda People’s Defence Forces (UPDF), and such arrests at this high level are causing tension within military circles.

The arrested officers are suspected of being involved in activities that go against the army’s code of conduct.

Maj Gen Felix Kulayigye, the official spokesperson for the UPDF, confirmed that the arrests were made. However, he did not reveal the names of the detained officers or give further details.

He only stated that the actions of the officers were against military rules and that investigations are still ongoing.

Reliable sources have told the media that President Yoweri Museveni is personally concerned about his safety.

These sources claim that he is worried about a series of bomb attacks that have been happening on roads he regularly uses—and at the exact times he usually travels.

Because of these growing threats, President Museveni reportedly ordered the head of Crime Intelligence, Maj Gen James Birungi Damulira, to carry out a full investigation.

Gen Damulira was tasked with uncovering anyone—no matter their rank—who could be plotting to harm the president.

The same sources say that some of the arrested officers may have links to people suspected of planning to assassinate the president or destabilize the government.

It is still not clear whether the group is connected to a larger political movement or if it is an internal betrayal.

Security officials are keeping tight control of the situation, and more arrests may follow in the coming days.

This is not the first time Uganda’s security forces have been shaken by fears of internal plots.

However, the scale and sensitivity of these arrests have left many Ugandans wondering what is really going on inside the army.

The government has remained tight-lipped, but more information is expected to come out as the investigations continue
