1 Mins read

First Son, Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba has weighed in on homosexuality since it’s a trending topic in Uganda.

“There is a scourge sweeping our countries…killing our children. As the great African General, I must speak out and advise them. Homosexuality is a SIN! Almighty God only intended men for women and vice versa. There is nothing more sweeter than a woman on this earth,” Tweeted Gen Muhooozi this morning.

His tweet comes at a time when cases of homosexuality are becoming rampant in the country, especially in schools.

It should be noted that a few weeks ago, Bugiri Municipality lawmaker Asuman Basalirwa obtained permission from the House to present a private member’s bill dubbed the Anti-Homosexuality Law, 2023.

The legislation aims to outlaw same-sex relationships.

Basalirwa requested permission from the House to propose the Bill during a plenary session by using Rule 79 of the Rules of Procedure, Article 79, and Article 94 of the Constitution.

On October 14, 2009, David Bahati, a Member of Parliament from Ndorwa East and the present Minister of State for Commerce, Industry, and Cooperatives, introduced the Anti Homosexuality Bill, 2009 as a Private Member’s Bill.

The Bill called for the death penalty for same-sex marriages and gay partnerships, including oral sex. It also called for the death penalty for “aggravated homosexuality,” which includes having sex with a juvenile or while HIV-positive.

On December 20, 2013, Parliament approved the Act, which calls for a life sentence with the possibility of the death penalty.

President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni signed the Act into law on February 24, 2014, however, the Constitutional Court declared it invalid on August 1 on the grounds that it was enacted without the required quorum.
