Uganda’s President Yoweri Museveni, 79, has promoted his son Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba to head the military.
The 48-year-old’s promotion comes amid a major cabinet reshuffle in which five ministers were sacked.
In power since 1986, Mr Museveni has denied speculation that he is grooming his only son as his successor.
Gen Kainerugaba is a controversial figure, becoming increasingly involved in the political arena, in breach of the military protocols.
