Uganda’s army chief Muhoozi Kainerugaba has sparked a diplomatic controversy after demanding $1 billion from Turkey along with what he described as “the most beautiful woman” in the country, while threatening to sever ties if his conditions are not met.
In a series of posts on X on Saturday, Kainerugaba said the payment should serve as a “security dividend” for Uganda’s military role in Somalia, where its troops have been involved in African Union missions against Islamist militant group Al-Shabab.
