�Don�t Peg Federo On Kingdoms�
By Emmanuel Mulondo
THE speaker of the Toro kingdom assembly
(Orukurato), the Rev. Clovis Kyalimpa, has opposed a federal system pegged on
cultural or traditional institutions.
Kyalimpa told the Constitutional
Review Commission on Wednesday, that it would cause problems similar to those of
the 1966 crisis.
He said cultural leaders should be divorced from politics.
He said there was no official kingdom position on the matter yet because the
leaders were divided over the issue with some advocating for a kingdom state.
Kyalimpa, who is also the Rwenzori Anglican diocesan secretary, recommended
that the Government support to the traditional institutions should be made
clearer when the Constitution is amended.
He said when the Government gives
handouts to cultural leaders, it appears like a bribe.
