Yoweri Museveni

Yoweri Museveni is the president of Uganda. He came to power after participating in the war that ended Idi Amin's rule, and the subsequent rebellion that toppled Milton Obote's regime. Museveni assumed the office of the president in 1986, and his regime has been characterized by relative peace and stability.

Throughout his time in office Museveni has engaged in armed conflict against the Lord's Resistance Army in northern Uganda, . The battle has been an exception to Museveni's otherwise peaceful administration. Museveni's Uganda has also been marred by political controversy, including Museveni's contentious ban Same Sex Marriage, and his refusal to send LRA leader Joseph Kony to The Hague to be tried for war crimes.
