Deeply saddened by the untimely passing of His Majesty King Oyo Nyimba Kabamba Iguru Rukidi IV of the Tooro Kingdom, Uganda, at only 34 years of age. Ascending the throne at just three years old, King Oyo devoted his life to preserving the rich culture and heritage of the Batooro people while championing unity, education and youth empowerment.

I extend my heartfelt condolences to the Queen Mother, the Royal Family, the people of Tooro and our brothers and sisters across Uganda. Africa has lost a remarkable young traditional leader. May His Majesty rest in eternal peace.

Today, H.E. President Dr. William Ruto presided over the handover of 4,536 modern studio units at Phase II of the Boma Yangu Mukuru Estate in Nairobi, marking a major milestone under the Affordable Housing Programme aimed at providing dignified, affordable homes to families transitioning from informal settlements without access to basic services such as clean water, security, electricity and proper sanitation.

This milestone is more than just the provision of homes, it represents a significant step towards dignified living and highlights the Government’s commitment to improving the quality of life for families.

The estate comes complete with essential amenities such as a reticulated gas system, schools, a police station, and a fire station, giving families safe, modern homes and a foundation for a brighter future.
