February 18, outgoing President Yoweri Museveni, in power since 1986, was reelected without surprise for the fourth time at the head of Uganda. To enable him to retain power even longer, a group of deputies of the majority intends to file a revision of the Constitution to extend the presidential term from five to seven years.
"The introduction of a seven-year term would allow Museveni to stay fourteen more to lead the country from 2016, when the end of the current mandate," reports the New Vision newspaper in Kampala. One of the strongest supporters of Museveni, James Kakooza, the origin of this proposal, believes that with a term of five years, the country is in permanent campaign.
