Uganda President Yoweri Museveni appeared publicly at a campaign rally in Paridi Stadium, Adjumani, on Oct. 20, 2025, ending weeks of speculation about his health. The 81-year-old walked unaided, addressed supporters, and answered questions from party members. His public return follows confirmation by the Electoral Commission that he will appear on the January 2026 presidential ballot. Museveni has been endorsed as the National Resistance Movement’s flagbearer and is expected to face opposition from Robert Kyagulanyi (Bobi Wine).
