Is The Kabaka Really Alive? Buganda Loyalists Demand For Their Kabaka Whether Dead Or Alive – Katikiiro Mayiga Shockingly Reveals Health Secrets

The Premier of Buganda Kingdom, Charles Peter Mayiga has clarified that Kabaka Ronald Mutebi is still out of the country, receiving treatment. He made the revelation on Monday, during the Buganda kingdom meeting where he updated on a number of issues.

For weeks now, the Kabaka has been out of the public eye, raising concerns among his subjects and Ugandans at large about his well-being. Many, especially on social media had pressed Katikkiro Mayiga to address concerns regarding the Kabaka’s whereabouts.

On Monday, Mayiga said the Kabaka is still out of the country receiving treatment and will return as soon as his medical handlers discharge him.

“I’m informing Buganda once again that the Kabaka is still abroad where he went for an appointment with his medical handlers. He will return upon the doctors’ confirmation that he is ready to be discharged.” Mayiga said on Monday.

The Buganda King, was last seen in March, just days before his birthday run which happened on April 7, 2024 at Mengo.Many participants who had anticipated to see the Kabaka flag off the run saw their excitement cut short after the Kabaka was a no show. Instead, the Kabaga delegated the princess royal, Dr Agnes Nabaloga, to flag off the birthday run.

Speaking to the journalists in early April, Katikkiro Mayiga would confirm that the Kabaka had left the country on March 21 to Europe, for an appointment with his medical handlers.The Kabaka is understood to have struggled with ill-health in recent years. In April 2021, he turned up for his 66th birthday celebrations looking frail.

The decision to allow the Kabaka out in that state did not go well with some subjects, while it also led to speculations about his condition until Mengo put a stop to it all.

In Mid 2022 , a source within the Kingdom circles said that Kabaka Mutebi developed allergies and was taken to one of the hospitals in Kampala where doctors immediately administered treatment.But it turned out that the King had received wrong treatment and it worsened his health.

Asked which hospital had administered the wrong treatment, the source declined to reveal this information citing the need to protect the hospital’s brand.But, a separate source alleged that Kabaka Mutebi had been treated from Platinum Medical Center, in Kampala where the facility was deemed fit to treat a patient with a high social standing.

When contacted, the hospital through a phone number on its website to substantiate whether it is true the Kabaka had been treated from Platinum Medical Center, the receiver who claimed was the Public Relations Officer said she couldn’t reveal anything on phone considering that “this is a sensitive information.”

According to the source, the Kabaka had to fly to Kenya, Nairobi at Agha Khan Hospital in August last year after the wrong drug prescription, for more specialized treatment, since the medicine he ingested in Kampala had released more toxins and intensified the allergies.
