President Yoweri Museveni has dropped his son Muhoozi Kainerugaba as the Commander of Land Forces.

He also promoted him to General, the highest rank in the Uganda Peoples Defence Forces.

Muhoozi will be replaced by Maj Gen Kayanja Muhanga, the current commander of Operation Shujaa who has since been promoted to Lt General,  

The changes come moments after a series of tweets in which Kainerugaba announced through his official handle   that he was on a mission to raze colonial borders and capture Nairobi, within two weeks.

The tweets which covered feeds since last evening sparked an online rage between Ugandans and Kenyans.

Early this afternoon, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs issued a statement reaffirming that Uganda treasures the existing strong bilateral relations between Uganda and Kenya based on the shared history between the two countries, common values, Mutual respect, trust and the desire to build a unified East African Community.
The Ministry added that the Government of Uganda does not conduct its foreign policy and other official business through Social Media nor depend on social media sources in dealing with other sovereign governments.

While the discussion ensued, Muhoozi Tweeted that he had held a discussion with his father Yoweri Museveni and informed him that the younger East Africans have decided to make East Africa one nation. He however added that they had agreed on some changes, which would be announced later in the day.
