Uganda re-elected Yoweri Museveni to a seventh term with about 72% of the vote, widening his margin over Bobi Wine amid security crackdowns and questions about health, while Museveni's camp promotes stability and oil-driven growth; analysts note a power shift within the NRM toward his inner circle and son Muhoozi Kainerugaba, signaling a gradual transition rather than abrupt change.
