Gen Muhoozi Kainerugaba has called for what he described as the biggest demonstration Uganda has ever seen at the Turkish Embassy on September 1, directing Members of Parliament Daudi Kabanda and Twaha Mwesigye, commonly known as Twallafadil, to mobilise people for the planned action.
The Chief of Defence Forces reportedly issued the call through his social media platforms, directly addressing the two legislators and demanding a major public mobilisation outside the diplomatic mission.
“Honourables @DaudiKabanda and @HonTwallafadil I want the biggest demonstration Uganda has ever seen at the Turkish embassy on the 1st of September,” Muhoozi reportedly wrote.
The statement has generated attention because of the scale of the demonstration Muhoozi is demanding and the fact that the call is directed at serving Members of Parliament.
The proposed demonstration is scheduled for September 1, with the Turkish Embassy expected to become the focal point of the planned gathering.
Muhoozi did not, in the quoted statement, provide detailed information about the specific issue that prompted him to call for the demonstration. The reasons behind the planned action are therefore likely to become clearer as organisers and political leaders explain the matter.
The direct involvement of Daudi Kabanda and Twallafadil has also raised interest because both are prominent figures within Uganda’s political circles and have networks that could potentially help mobilise supporters.

By publicly directing the legislators to organise a large demonstration, Muhoozi appears to be seeking a significant turnout rather than a small gathering.
The wording of his message, particularly the reference to “the biggest demonstration Uganda has ever seen,” indicates that he expects the event to attract a substantial number of people.
The call comes at a time when political and diplomatic issues involving foreign missions can quickly attract national attention, especially when prominent government or political figures become involved.
The Turkish Embassy in Kampala could therefore find itself at the centre of a major public gathering if Muhoozi’s call is implemented as stated.
It remains unclear how the organisers intend to structure the demonstration, where participants will assemble and what specific demands they will present to Turkish diplomatic officials.
The role of the two MPs will also be closely watched as the September 1 date approaches. Their response to Muhoozi’s directive could determine the scale and organisation of the planned action.
The call also highlights Muhoozi’s continuing influence in Uganda’s political discussions, despite his primary position as the country’s Chief of Defence Forces.
His public statements on political and national matters have frequently attracted significant attention, particularly when they involve senior politicians, government institutions or international affairs.

The proposed demonstration could therefore become another major event linked to Muhoozi’s public political messaging, depending on how the call develops in the coming days.
The planned action may also generate discussion about the relationship between public demonstrations, Uganda’s diplomatic engagements and the responsibilities of political leaders involved in organising public gatherings.
As September 1 approaches, attention is expected to shift toward the issue behind the demonstration and whether the organisers will succeed in turning Muhoozi’s call into a large-scale public mobilisation.
The public will also be watching to see whether the Turkish Embassy or other relevant authorities respond to the announcement and whether further details are provided about the intended demonstration.
For Kabanda and Twallafadil, the message represents a direct public assignment from the CDF to mobilise Ugandans for the planned event. Their response and subsequent activities could determine whether the call gains momentum.
At this stage, however, the exact reasons for the demonstration, the expected turnout and the specific demands to be presented at the embassy remain unclear from Muhoozi’s quoted statement.
What is certain is that September 1 has been identified as the date for the proposed demonstration, with Muhoozi calling for an unprecedented turnout at the Turkish Embassy in Kampala.
