About
Yoweri Kaguta Museveni Tibuhaburwa is a Ugandan politician, dictator, and former rebel leader who has served as the president of Uganda since 1986. Museveni’s government has long been widely considered to be dictatorial, with political parties being effectively banned from 1986 to 2005, and the use of political repression, lawfare and ballot stuffings to maintain power since the 2005 Ugandan multi-party referendum. As of 2026, after ruling Uganda for more than 40 years, he is currently the third longest-serving non-royal leader in the world behind dictators Paul Biya and Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo.
