According to reports, Ugandan intelligence is closely monitoring several ugandans working abroad including UNAA president Charles Muvawala  especially at this time when opposition strongman Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu is reenergizing his support base in United States of America.

 

Sources say Gen Museveni was briefed by security that Muvawala was mobilizing funds to facilitate Bobi Wine’s political struggle using his position as the vice president of the Uganda North America Association (UNAA) and vocal supporter of the National Unity Platform (NUP).

 

Sources said that in 2025, the Ugandan government through Financial Intelligence Agency (FIA) froze a bank account with millions of shillings after investigations revealed that the money was being deposited on the said bank account to facilitate NUP’s political activities and that Muvawala together with Dr. Daniel Kawuma, the head of the NUP Diaspora chapter in United States were behind the bank account and to save their money, Muvawala was sent to Uganda to present all the necessary documents to prove to the authorities that the money on the said bank account was his.

 

Sources said that it was the reason why Muvawala was kidnapped in 2025 when he returned to Uganda and spent weeks in security detention until he was dumped in Buliisa district without any criminal charges slapped on him.

Even though he was advised to leave the country since he is also a United States of America citizen, Muvawala desperately remained in the country while struggling to rescue the money so he was again arrested in early 2026 when he was at Bobi Wine’s political rally and he was charged with illegal filming of a policeman and remanded to Luzira prison but he was released.

 

Gen Museveni was informed that its the reason why Bobi Wine was not bothered by with the controversial Inter Party Organization for Dialogue (IPOD) amendments which denied his party from benefiting from the said money.
