Museveni cries are on right side of history

A battle-hardened politician who knows when to speak, Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni or 'M7' is a man on a mission.

Lately, when he isn't berating homosexuals and chiding the West over 'colonial' tendencies, he sees big trouble with the East African Community (EAC) and mostly Kenya, his pet neighbour. After donors halted loans to Uganda over the country's anti-LGBTQ law and then a fuel haulage row with Nairobi erupted, the veteran leader took to the political chessboard. He thinks Kenya 'abuses' Uganda's spirit of Pan-Africanism.
