President of Uganda since 1986
Yoweri Kaguta Museveni Tibuhaburwa is a Ugandan politician and former rebel leader who has served as the president of Uganda since 1986. Museveni has long been widely considered to be a dictator, with political parties being effectively banned from 1986 to 2005, and the use of political repression, lawfare and ballot stuffings to maintain power since the 2005 Ugandan multi-party referendum. As of 2026, after ruling Uganda for more than 40 years, he is currently the third longest-serving non-royal leader in the world behind dictators Paul Biya and Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo.
