She went on to obtain a bachelor’s degree in aeronautical engineering from the University of Manchester, becoming the first female Ugandan to become an aeronautical engineer. She later received a master’s degree in mechanical engineering, specializing in energy conservation from Cranfield University.

Professional Career

Following the completion of her training as an aeronautical engineer, Byanyima worked as a flight engineer for Uganda Airlines. When Yoweri Museveni started the 1981–1986 Ugandan Bush War, Byanyima left her job and joined the armed rebellion. Museveni and Byanyima had been raised together at the Byanyima household as children, with the Byanyima family paying for all Museveni’s education and scholastic needs.

Museveni, Byanyima, and her husband Kizza Besigye were combatants in the National Resistance Army (NRA) during that war though both Byanyima and her husband have since fallen out with the Ugandan president because of the difference in political views.

Retrieved from a 30th March 2006 interview with Benon Herbert Oluka of Weekly Observer (now The Observer), the late Mzee Byanyima (Winnie’s father) said that Museveni twice proposed to marry Winnie but he blocked the union because ‘Museveni was not a reliable character’.

According to Museveni’s former teacher at Mbarara High School, the long-serving Uganda leader was cohabiting with Winnie Byanyima while already married to First Lady and  Minister for Education and Sports, Janet Kataaha Museveni.

Their extramarital affair started from Museveni’s successful guerrilla war waged between 1981 and 1986 against the government of Milton Obote, and later that of Tito Okello.

The late Byanyima in the interview described how he was heartbroken when his gorgeous daughter Winnie joined Museveni in the bush when he expected her to be in Europe after studying her engineering degree at Manchester University in the United Kingdom.

Byanyima said, “Museveni proposed to marry Winnie, which I opposed and told my daughter that Museveni was not a reliable character. I think it was in 1987. By then he was married to Janet (Kataaha). I knew that.”

“First, there came his father Amos (Kaguta) to propose. I said no. Then Museveni came when he was president. I said  I can’t agree. I said if you are going to marry her .. if she wants, it will be her responsibility. I don’t want that. They stayed together for a while. When people are staying together, you don’t know for how long (but) they were staying together at Entebbe.”
