The agreement which brought Buganda and other Nations into Uganda of 1900, which was created by the British Colonial administration was not endorsed and consented by the people of Buganda because their was no consultation madeby any leaders on the People of Buganda at that time.

Kabaka advocates for good governance, commissions local government Day in Buganda
Ebitawuluzi, ssaza boundaries launched
Ssaabasajja Kabaka Ronald Muwenda Mutebi II has launched the first of its kind, the Buganda Local government day organized by Buganda government in Gulu-Mukono Kyaggwe County.
In his speech, Ssaabasajja appreciated the good cooperation exhibited between the central government and Buganda government, as this calls for joint efforts to generate ideas that will develop the citizens of Uganda.
Ssaabasajja has noted that all leaders of different categories such as; cultural, religious or political must be trust worthy at all levels for the effective delivery of services to his people.
He says any kind of leadership which does not respect people’s freedom, must be discouraged.
Kabaka added that people want hardworking sub-county chiefs who could lead them to prosperity.
Maaso moogi further revealed that any kind of leadership must accept any changes which occur.
Ssaabasajja asked the local government ministry to organize the leadership workshops to equip county and sub county chiefs with ideas and leadership skills.
In conclusion His Majesty called upon his subjects to practice subsistence farming in order to produce enough food to feed the households and have a small cash crop.
The second deputy Katikkiro, Owek. Mohamood Ssemambo Ssekimpi asked men to put into consideration the theme of the day which states“OBUKULEMBEZE OBUGGUMIVU KU MITENDERA GYONNA NGA
BUNYWEREDDE KU NNAMULONDO” YE NAMUZIGA Y’OKUTUUSA BUGANDA KU NTIKKO
Ssekimpi urged parents/guardians to educate their children as this is under the bid of taking Buganda at the helm.
He also asked the county chiefs to ensure that the parish and sub parish leaders do their work consistently.
Minister for Local government David Mpanga said that, next year every county must exhibit something that led to its naming as well as the projects which have been established to generate county’s income.
“Re-introduction of Ebitawuluzi, (the local courts) that solve the land disputes at village level are to be established as it was in the past” Mpanga added
He added that legal aid clinic will be held in all counties to teach people more about land ownership and succession with a goal of solving the land disputes.
Mpanga further said that the local government ministry has put on its agenda the main issues to be tackled before next year’s celebration, and these include;
-
·Encouraging every county to plant trees at the ssaza headquarters.
-
·Annual Buganda conference for county and sub-county chiefs.
-
·Establishment of a museum, which will exhibit a book that will show the history and background of each county.
Ssaabasajja handed Kyaggwe an award, certificate and a cheque worth seven million and five hundred thousand for emerging winners of the competitions.
Kyaggwe County emerged the best in the competitions that were organized by the Kingdom’s local government ministry in different aspects. In the competitions, they evaluated leadership, environmental protection, the state of county head quarters, the management of land issues, how meetings are held and different projects initiated. Because of such wonderful performance, Kyaggwe County had to host this year’s Buganda local government’s day celebrations. The day coincided with the thanks giving by the newly appointed Gombolola chiefs in show of appreciation to the Kabaka for entrusting them with his delegated s
QUEST FOR BAGANDA LEADERS
BUGANDA KU'NTINKO'NGA,ENDDA
Buganda Kingdom premier Charles Peter Mayiga waves to a crowd in Wakiso District recently during a fundraising drive for the restoration of the royal tombs.
A year since Buganda Kingdom Katikkiro (premier) Charles Peter Mayiga took office, there are mixed reactions about his performance and future.
Having assumed the job on May 12, 2013, Mr Mayiga laid out the first things he would do as Katikkiro in his first speech, which included: protecting the king’s throne, restoring Kasubi tombs which were gutted by fire in 2010 and those at Wamala, and restructuring how work is done at the Mengo establishment in that order.
Mr Mayiga has traversed the kingdom, mobilising resources for the restoration of the royal tombs. He has been received by huge crowds of kingdom loyalists in a style previously reserved only for Kabaka Ronald Muwenda Mutebi.
He also made it clear that he was not just a leader of Buganda but a leader in Uganda while concluding his speech.
To emphasise this, he has moved beyond the kingdom’s frontiers to Ankole and Busoga.
He made history when he became the first Katikkiro of Buganda Kingdom to be hosted officially by Parliament.
Former Katikkiro and veteran politician Joash Mayanja Nkangi describes him as developmental.
“I am pleased that he is able to make people in and outside Buganda to contribute to the kingdom’s projects willingly,” Mr Nkangi says.
However, he warned Mr Mayiga about the politics surrounding the kingdom’s issues. “It will not be easy for him to get all the things that the kingdom demands as the politics surrounding them is very difficult,” Mr Nkangi says.
Another former katikkiro, Mr Daniel Mulika, praises Mr Mayiga for rejuvenating the restoration of the kindgom’s royal tombs.
“He has awakened the Masiro issue which is very good but the people both in Buganda and the rest of Uganda need to get back their power. We are tired of leaders who are our bosses; we want powers that originate from the bottom to the top,” Mr Mulika says.
Mr Mulika cites a new report by the Ministry of Education which puts the central region as having the highest number of households with children out of school, accounting for 83.8 per cent to make a case that Buganda is not developing.
“Is that development?” Mulika asks, “Let this government get out of the kingdom affairs and we shall set education, agriculture and health standards we want and then we shall talk of development in Buganda,” he says.
BUGANDA HOMELAND EXPECTS DELIVERY.
2016 UGANDA GENERAL ELECTION
FOR A REAL CHANGE OF UGANDA POLITICS
BUGANDA HOMELAND SHOULD SHOW LEADERSHIP IN THE NEXT UGANDA ELECTION BY NOT TAKING PART IN ELECTION WITHOUT AN INDEPENDENT ELECTORAL COMMISSION, WHICH WILL DELIVER A FARE ELECTION FOR ALL UGANDAN.
