Uganda's King Oyo Royal Family Rejects Kijanangoma

A succession dispute has emerged in Uganda's Tooro Kingdom following the death of King Oyo Nyimba Kabamba Iguru Rukidi IV, who ruled for over three decades. The royal clan announced Prince Edward Rukidi Kijanangoma as the new monarch, which was rejected by the late king’s family, as they insist he named his young son as his heir in a 2022 will. Queen Best Kemigisa, Oyo's mother, has called for peace and has expressed concern over military restrictions at the royal palace during the ongoing disagreement. The conflict highlights the complex traditional succession process in Tooro, where the new ruler is chosen by clan elders, despite family claims based on the late king's explicit wishes.
