National Resistance Movement Seizes Power in Uganda

January 25th, 1986 39 years ago

The National Resistance Movement (NRM), led by Yoweri Museveni, launched a successful offensive against the government of Tito Okello, ultimately capturing Kampala and establishing control over Uganda. The offensive was notable for its speed and the military strategies employed by the NRM, which had been fighting against various regimes for several years. The fall of Okello's government marked a significant turning point in Uganda's political landscape, setting the stage for years of civil order under Museveni's rule.
