Subject: [Ugnet] Kabaka
Kabaka is next to God - Ssebaana

KAMPALA - The Mayor, Mr John Ssebaana, on Friday
said the Kabaka of Buganda, Ronald Mutebi, is next to God whose
decisions should not be questioned.
He said the Kabaka is
anointed with the holy oil, which guides him to make appropriate
decisions on behalf of his subjects anytime anywhere.
“In Buganda,
the Kabaka is always right, we only appreciate whatever he does for us.
He is respected most after God the creator,” Ssebaana said.
He
was reacting to the recent press reports and public opinions that the
Kabaka blindly appointed Asians among others to his Cabinet
recently.
The Kabaka made changes in his government recently that saw
two Asians, a businessman and former Villa Treasurer, Mr Ahmed Omar
Mandela, appointed. Mandela is a Somali.
He also Mr Rajni Tailor,
the Minister for Economic Planning, Development and Investment and Mr
Mohamood Thobani, his deputy.
Ssebaana, also a Lukiiko member, said
the public should not question the Kabaka’s decision to appoint Asian
ministers.
“Kabaka appoints according to one’s capacity and
discipline, irrespective of the race,” he said.

MENGO - The Buganda Kingdom has asked the
government to start the construction of Butikkiro, as per their
agreement.
The secretary to Buganda land board, Mr Levi Zimbe, said
preparations for the plot on which a new Butikkiro (Katikkiro’s official
residence) would be built has been finished.
Zimbe said a
six-acre plot has been cleared for Butikkiro’s construction by the
central government.
“The place is at plot 749 on Ring Road, opposite
Mengo Palace between Kaalaala gate and the main entrance to the palace.
We want the government to start the constructions immediately,” Zimbe
said.

The central
government and Mengo agreed to put up a new Butikkiro after government
occupying the old Bukikkiro with Joint Clinic Research Centre (JCR)
since 1993.
“The government has never paid even a single shilling to
Mengo from the building,” Zimbe said.
Last year, Mengo submitted
plans for the new Butikkiro to the government’s office of the Vice
President and the kingdom has been waiting for the work to
start.
According to Buganda culture, the Kabaka cannot reside in
his official residence (Twekobe) inside Mengo Palace, before the
Katikkiro occupies Butikkiro.
Sources at Mengo said the Kabaka was
unhappy with the delay in Butikkiro’s constructions.
