Among Denies Party Plans After Muhoozi Arrest Warning

What the report says

Former Speaker of Parliament Anita Annet Among has denied any role in a reported party being planned in her honour, after Chief of Defence Forces Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba said anyone involved would be arrested. According to Nile Post, Muhoozi publicly rejected the idea of a celebration for Among and warned that organisers would face arrest, while also making a separate reference to unresolved matters despite forgiveness.

Among responded that she had not authorised the gathering and that no one linked to her was organising such an event. She urged the public to dismiss the reports as misinformation and said there were no arrangements by her or her associates for a party in her name. The exchange unfolded amid renewed public attention on Among’s recent political and legal status.

Nile Post noted that Muhoozi’s comments came weeks after President Yoweri Museveni reportedly eased restrictions on Among’s movement and dropped plans for prosecution following corruption and illicit wealth investigations. The article also recalled Muhoozi’s earlier statement that Museveni had forgiven Among after she had “made mistakes,” and that Among later thanked the President and said she would return to her parliamentary duties. The development highlights continuing sensitivity around Among’s political standing and the public messaging surrounding her rehabilitation within government circles.
