Although the current President has not made an effort to groom a successor from the ruling National Resistance Movement, his wife Hon. Janet Museveni, MP who recently became appointed Minister and his son, Lt. Col. Muhoozi Kainerugaba are front runners.
Pamoja na kwamba Rais wa sasa hajafanya jitihada za kumuandaa mrithi kutoka chama tawala cha National Resistance Movement, mkewe Mhe. Janet Museveni, Mbunge ambaye hivi karibuni aliteuliwa kuwa Waziri na mwanawe, Luteni Kanali Muhoozi Kainerugaba ni washiriki wa mbele.
