Succession jitters send Uganda’s elite house-hunting in neighbouring Nairobi

Ugandans are increasingly seeking work or places to stay in Nairobi, according to a recently arrived Ugandan Uber driver and a Kenyan driver who said friends in Uganda had asked him for help. The gradual movement out of Uganda appears to be accelerating amid growing concerns about 82-year-old President Yoweri Museveni, who has been in power for more than 40 years. The worries include an allegedly weakening grip on power, a shaky economy and the possibility that a potentially murderous dictatorship could succeed him.
