Claim to the throne

He was the eldest surviving son of Kabaka Nakibinge Kagali, Kabaka of Buganda, who reigned between 1524 and 1554. His mother was Nabakyaala Namulondo, the fourth wife of his father and the Naabagereka. He was elected to succeed his father, upon his father's death and after the regency of his step-mother expired on the birth of her daughter in 1555. He established his capital at Mitw'ebiri Hill.

Married life

He married as his only wife, Nakku, daughter of Naserenga, of the Ffumbe clan.

Issue

He fathered three sons, by his wife, Nakku of the Ffumbe clan:

  • Prince (Omulangira) Kazibwe
  • Prince (Omulangira) Walugembe
  • Kabaka Sekamaanya Kisolo, Kabaka of Buganda
  • The final years

    He died at the Kiryokyembi Palace, in Mitw'ebiri. He is buried at Gombe, in Bulemeezi County. Other credible sources place his burial place at Bulondo Busiro.
