Hi everyone 💞💞
Yesterday I was watching the news on one of the very top news channel BBC to be precise and a particular news story caught my attention, the re- election of the Ugandan president, Yoweri museveni. After some time I switched to another channel and same news popped up. All the while as I was listening, something kept reoccurring, "Longest serving president" i got curious and decided to look it up
Apparently the Ugandan president has just won his sixth term in office as in his 1 2 3 4 5 6th term in office. That long right??. As at this time, he has spent a total of thirty three years(33) in office.
So out of curiosity I went further to check on other long serving president from around the globe and I found out that he is not even the longest serving and that there are some ahead of him.

Here is a thread of longest serving presidents from around the world and how long they were in office
- Teodoro Obiang Nguema Mbasogo
Country: Equitorial Guinea
Years in office : 39
- Paul Biya
Country: Cameroon
Years in office: 36
- Yoweri Moseveni
Country: Uganda
Years in office: 33
- Omar Al Bashir
Country: Sudan
Years in office: 29
- Idris Deby Itno
Country: Chad
Years in office: 28
Decided to do a list of top 5. Apparently, on a lighter note for all of these leaders, the number of years they have spent individually is atleast a year older than the number of years I have spent on this Earth so far😁.
This is all guys, hope you enjoyed going through this
Thanks for viewing 💞
