They deliberated on the security state of the East African Community (EAC) region and the peace efforts in the eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).
"Besides the security situation in the East African Community (EAC) region, the two leaders deliberated on the ongoing Peace Processes geared towards the realization of a lasting peace and stability in the eastern part of the Democratic Republic of Congo," Uhuru's office said.
Also present at the meeting were; John Mulimba, Uganda’s Minister of State for Foreign Affairs in charge of Regional Affairs, Ambassador Macharia Kamau, and Brigadier (Rtd) Elijah Mwanyika.
Uhuru's camaraderie with Museveni's eldest child
Besides work, the families of Museveni and Uhuru seem to have friendly ties.
While still in office, Uhuru would host the Ugandan leader's eldest son identified as Muhoozi Kainerubaga at State House, Nairobi.
During their meetings, the state house's official communication would report that their discussions centred on several bilateral and multilateral issues of interest to Nairobi and Kampala.
They would also discuss the restoration of peace in the eastern parts of the DRC.
On his part, Muhoozi would always pledge allegiance.
Often times he said that he would "side with Uhuru no matter what happens", referring to the former president as his elder brother.
The rabble-rouser Museveni's son regards Uhuru's grandfather as a 'Omukama Kabalega', one of Ugandan's greatest kings.
"His grandfather was Omukama Kabalega. One of our greatest kings. Blood relations link Uganda and Kenya," he added
In early 2022, Muhoozi, at Uhuru's invitation, graced the inauguration of the Inland Container Depot in Naivasha, Nakuru county.
