In the video, he says, “It’s good to go outside, outdoors when there’s no problem. But when there’s need you can go indoors.”
The video is an attempt to encourage Ugandans to refrain from outdoor exercise in groups or close to each other, and practice responsible social distancing by taking their workouts indoors during the strict national lockdown.
This isn’t the first time he’s attempted to connect more personally with his constituents. In 2010, Museveni released a rap song called “you want another rap,” aimed at improving his image among younger voters.
While his current video might not earn him as much street cred, it does serve an important purpose, and hopefully, Ugandans abide by the message to stay indoors.
