President Uhuru Kenyatta could be one of the close allies of Muhoozi Kainerugaba, son to his counterpart Yoweri Museveni.

This was evident in a message the scion tweeted on Wednesday in which he declared that Uhuru was his friend.

"President Uhuru and I are brothers forever!" he said.

In June this year, Muhoozi held talks with President Uhuru at State House, Nairobi.

During the meeting, they discussed several bilateral and multilateral issues of interest to Kenya and Uganda.

"Among the issues that we discussed included the restoration of peace in the Democratic Republic of Congo," Uhuru said.
