@Ntalebrian22 Hahaha 😆. They have conceded....

@UTDNob There is no “Team Baby King”; there is only Team Gullible—those who believe every fanciful story they are fed without question.

@UTDNob You will be fine....

@BwayoEnock26594 @baryamureeba Just watch the space..

I really appreciate your point of concern, but have you bothered to understand the customs and norms governing the naming of a King in a will? A throne cannot simply be bequeathed as though it were personal property. Where the prescribed customs are not followed, the mandate falls to the Babiito, led by the Omusuuga, to select a King from among the recognised royal lineage. The new King was not “elected from the street,” as some of you want to portray it.

You marry into one of the highest positions in a kingdom that has existed for generations. You are entrusted with a prestigious name, placed in a position of great honour, and given access to influential connections and associations. Over the years, you use that name and position to build yourself. [Later you start assuming that you are just doing the people of a full kingdom a favor].

But after all those years, how do you fail to protect the dignity and honour attached to that position?

Sometimes I genuinely wonder how we, as women, think. Where does that sense of entitlement come from when you are carrying a responsibility that extends beyond yourself,over an entire kingdom and millions of people?🤦🏾‍♀️

Becoming a Queen Mother is not just a title; it is a responsibility. It requires humility, restraint, wisdom, and an understanding that the position is bigger than the individual.

These are earthly things, after all. But imagine treating an entire kingdom as an ordinary household. Tororo’s dignity is bigger than any one person.

I stand with Omusuuga wa Tooro, Omubiito Charles Kayondo Kamurasi Akiiki.

He has exposed those masquerading as powerful leaders fighting the Kingdom. How can you lock the Palace just 1 day after Omukama has rested? That is totally against Tooro customs.

We thank you Mzee for defending tradition. CDF Gen @mkainerugaba, take note your name was being used by these same people to fight the Kingdom. The truth is out! Omusuuga Juu.

In 1999, Prince Charles Happy Kijanangoma, a member of Tooro’s Babiito royal clan, was shot dead at a bar in Fort Portal in a murder that became one of the most politically charged cases in the history of the restored Tooro Kingdom.

Kijanangoma was killed on the night of March 25, 1999, at Palace View Bar in Fort Portal, where he had gone for drinks with a friend. The Uganda Supreme Court later established that Alex Twinomugisha, one of the men convicted in the case, shot Kijanangoma at the bar. The night watchman, Stephen Kaganda, was also shot dead, while another person at the scene was wounded. (ULII⁠)

The murder came amid a bitter power struggle within the Tooro Kingdom following the death of King Patrick Olimi Kaboyo in 1995 and the installation of his three-year-old son, Oyo Nyimba Kabamba Iguru Rukidi IV.

John Sanyu Katuramu, who had served as Tooro Kingdom prime minister under Kaboyo, became one of the regents governing the kingdom on behalf of the young king. The Supreme Court said a rift developed between Katuramu and members of the royal family, including Princess Elizabeth Bagaya and Prince Kijanangoma.

The dispute involved both control of the kingdom and disagreements over royal property. Members of the royal family wanted Katuramu removed as prime minister and regent, while some of the kingdom’s property disputes ended up in court. (ULII⁠)

Kijanangoma was in Fort Portal on March 25 to attend one of the court proceedings involving the kingdom’s property. Before his death, he had reportedly warned an acquaintance that he had received information that Katuramu was planning to have him killed.

Later that evening, at about 9pm, Kijanangoma was drinking at Palace View Bar. According to the Supreme Court judgment, a stranger entered the bar and whispered to Twinomugisha, who then left with him. They returned shortly afterwards, and Twinomugisha shot Kijanangoma from about five metres away. Kijanangoma died instantly. The attackers then shot the bar’s night watchman, Kaganda, as they fled. (ULII⁠)

The investigation eventually led to Katuramu, Twinomugisha and Patrick Kwezi. Kwezi was accused of transmitting money to the killers, while Twinomugisha was identified as the gunman. The three were convicted of the murders.

The High Court sentenced them to death in 2001. The convictions were subsequently challenged, but the Supreme Court upheld the convictions in 2003. (ULII⁠)

Katuramu’s death sentence was later commuted to life imprisonment following the Supreme Court’s decision on the application of the death penalty. He was released from Luzira Prison in 2021 after serving about 20 years. (New Vision⁠)

Prince Happy Kijanangoma was a member of the Kijanangoma branch of the Tooro royal family. His killing has remained a defining episode in the family’s history and in the political struggles that followed the restoration of the Tooro monarchy.

More than two decades later, the Kijanangoma branch has returned to the centre of Tooro’s succession politics, after Prince Edward Rukidi Kijanangoma, Happy’s brother, was selected in September 2026 as the successor to the late King Oyo.

The Confidence level is insane..💀🔥

[Omutaka Kayanja @OmutakaK]

I don’t think this statement praises the late King at all. If anything, it raises serious questions about the strength of his administration if, after 31 years, the Kingdom was allegedly left without sufficient resources to fund an important function like this. That is hardly something to boast about.

[Omutaka Kayanja @OmutakaK]

@ArthurMuhwezi12 I don’t think this is something to be proud of. If anything, such conduct has only diminished her reputation in the eyes of right-thinking members of society. Pride in destroying or stripping Kingdom property is hardly something worth celebrating.
