Socialist Zohran Mamdani is back in Uganda, the country of his birth — but just to celebrate his wedding.

The Democrat mayoral candidate, 33, announced the visit to the East African country in a video addressed to his “haters” on X on Sunday morning, and even found time to have a pop at The Post.

“Being a politician means listening, not just to your supporters, but to your critics too,” he said in the video. “And some of these critics – especially on a certain website – have been giving me consistent advice.”

Sharing a series of posts on X telling the Queens congressman to “go back to Africa,” Mamdani, who moved to the US when he was 7, joked that he was taking his trolls’ advice.

“I hear you, and I agree: I’m going back to Uganda,” he said, before adding, “I’m headed there in a personal capacity to celebrate Rama and I’s marriage with our family and friends.”

Mamdani and Rama Duwaji, 27, an artist and animator, married in February this year, the would-be successor to Eric Adams revealed in a post on X in May.

“But I do want to apologize to the haters, because I will be coming back,” Mamdani added, before having a pop at The Post.

“And since you will undoubtedly read about this trip in The New York Post – inshallah on the front page – here are a few of my humble suggestions for headlines,” he said, before dropping a few pale imitations of The Post’s signature style.

Mamdani’s campaign issued a statement about the visit to Uganda.

“Zohran is traveling to Uganda, where he is celebrating his marriage to Rama with their family and close friends,” the statement read.

“He will return to New York before the end of the month and looks forward to resuming public events and continuing his campaign to make the most expensive city in America affordable.”
