Did the Museveni government quietly hire powerful Washington lobbyists while publicly condemning foreign interference?<\/p>\n
In this explosive investigation, we examine newly filed U.S. Department of Justice Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA) documents that reveal how the Government of Uganda has expanded its lobbying operation in Washington, D.C., hiring American firms to engage Congress, the Executive Branch, think tanks, media organizations, and key policymakers.<\/p>\n
For decades, President Yoweri Museveni has portrayed Western criticism of his government as foreign interference and neo-colonial pressure. Yet these publicly available U.S. filings paint a different picture: Uganda’s government has retained multiple lobbying firms to represent its interests and improve its standing in Washington.<\/p>\n
Among the latest disclosures:<\/p>\n
\ud83d\udd34 Moran Global Strategies Inc. was retained to represent Uganda’s interests in the United States.<\/p>\n
\ud83d\udd34 Skyline Capitol LLC was hired as a subcontractor to conduct strategic communications, media relations, and outreach to U.S. policymakers.<\/p>\n
\ud83d\udd34 The agreement includes a $20,000-per-month retainer for Skyline Capitol beginning July 2026, in addition to previously disclosed lobbying contracts, bringing publicly reported lobbying commitments to at least $540,000 annually, excluding reimbursable expenses and any additional agreements.<\/p>\n
The FARA filings describe services that include:<\/p>\n
\u2714\ufe0f Strategic advice and representation in the United States.<\/p>\n
\u2714\ufe0f Outreach to members of Congress and the Executive Branch.<\/p>\n
\u2714\ufe0f Communications with think tanks, nonprofit organizations, and policy influencers.<\/p>\n
\u2714\ufe0f Media relations and public affairs support.<\/p>\n
\u2714\ufe0f Efforts aimed at strengthening Uganda’s political, economic, and commercial relations with the United States.<\/p>\n
These documents raise important questions about government priorities. At a time when many Ugandans continue to face unemployment, struggling public hospitals, underfunded schools, and inadequate infrastructure, critics may question whether substantial public resources should be devoted to lobbying and public relations abroad.<\/p>\n
This video carefully examines what the official U.S. filings say, what they do not say, and why these disclosures matter for transparency, accountability, and Uganda’s relationship with the international community.<\/p>\n
Watch until the end as we break down the contracts, the firms involved, the payments disclosed under U.S. law, and what these filings reveal about Uganda’s lobbying strategy in Washington.<\/p>\n
