If Museveni will win the Elections in 2021,then he will be have ruled for over 40 years.
The Ugandan President was cleared by his political party,National Resistance Movement and also the Parliamentary Legislators.
Uganda’s ruling party has endorsed President Yoweri Museveni, 74, as its candidate in 2021 elections, which could see him seek re-election for a sixth term, a party resolution said.
The National Resistance Movement (NRM) called for Museveni to “continue leading the movement and the state in 2021 and beyond to eliminate bottlenecks to transformation.”
The resolution was adopted at a retreat for top party officials chaired by Museveni.
The move comes after a bill was signed in December 2017 scrapping a presidential age limit of 75, which would have blocked Museveni from running again, sparking demonstrations and an outcry from the opposition which accused the president of seeking to rule for life.
Museveni, who seized power at the head of a rebel army in 1986, once said leaders who “overstayed” were the root of Africa’s problems.
However while running for a fifth term in 2016, he said it was not the right time for him to leave, as he still had work to do.
