He was elevated to the rank of Commander of Land Forces in the Uganda Army, in what analysts said was suspicious.

Speaking over the rumours that he was recently flown to Nairobi for treatment, Muhoozi said: “Some friends of mine like Alan Kasujja told me that some enemies were declaring me dead, or very ill from Covid-19. I’m very well.
