Museveni Cancels Rwanda Trip to attend African Union Extraordinary Summit

The Special Forces Commando unit that guards President Museveni has been withdrawn from Rwanda after the head-of-state cancelled his planned trip to the Capital, Kigali.

President Museveni had confirmed his attendance at the much anticipated African Union Extraordinary Summit on the African Continental Free Trade Area set for 21 March 2018.

The Kigali Extraordinary Summit was agreed to during the ordinary session of the Assembly of the Union held in Addis Ababa in late January 2018.

The function is being driven forward along with other key related initiatives such as the Single African Air Transport Market and the Protocol on Free Movement of Persons and the African Passport.

ChimpReports reveals that the last advance team of President Museveni flew out of Kigali on Sunday night.

It remains unclear why Museveni decided to cancel the trip.
