Museveni son shocks Kenyans with cryptic war tweets

Kainerugaba, a high-ranking Ugandan Army General, kicked off his tweet storm by heaping praise on former President Uhuru Kenyatta, who he often refers to as his big brother, before launching into a discombobulated tirade at Kenya in general.

First, he tweeted that he had held talks with former President Uhuru Kenyatta and that the former Kenyan leader was going to visit Uganda soon.

"Just spoke to my big brother, Afande Uhuru. An incredible man! I love him for his courage, honesty and intelligence! He will visit Uganda soon." he tweeted, accompanied by two photos of Kenyatta.

After a short while, Kainerugaba lamented Uhuru's departure from power, tweeting," My only problem with my beloved big brother is that he didn't stand for a third term. We would have won easily!"

That tweet was later followed by a storm of unprovoked tweets that saw the prominent son of one of Africa's longest serving rulers, mock Kenyans' strict observance of the rule of law and obedience to the Constitution.

"Haha! I love my Kenyan relatives. Constitution? Rule of law? You must be joking! For us there is only the Revolution and you will soon learn about it!" he tweeted.

The tweet attracted anger and dismay from most of his Kenyan followers as they flocked to the comment section to rail at him.

A few moments later, he tweeted," It wouldn't take us, my army and me, 2 weeks to capture Nairobi" further confusing many and shattering Twitter.

Muhoozi went a little deeper, shockingly referring to Kenya as 'our district' and claiming that, in two weeks, he will have captured Nairobi. 

"I'm happy that members of our district in Kenya have responded enthusiastically to my tweet. Its still 2 weeks to Nairobi!"

The General kept the taunts coming asking, "After our army captures Nairobi, where should i live? Westlands? Riverside?"

Muhoozi is the commander of the land forces of the Uganda People's Defence Force.

His father Yoweri Kaguta Museveni attended President William Ruto's swearing in at Kasarani stadium earlier last month.
