Inteligense of both Buganda Kingdom and Central government have been briefed to be on alert over the planned attack on Lubiri by different groups who’re using social media. Through the Minister in Charge of the Kingdom Parliament issues and special assignments in Premier’s Office Owekitiibwa Noah Kiyimba has updated the world on King Ronald Muwenda Mutebi’s sickness.
Four weeks now, Buganda Kingdom administration led by Premier Charles Peter Mayiga has been under pressure from people on social media who demanded to see their King.
Others claim that the King has returned from abroad where he had gone to receive further medical attention but Mayiga doesn’t want him to appear before the public.
However, responding to the said allegation, Kiyimba on behalf of Owekitiibwa Israel Kitooke Kazibwe the Kingdom Information and Mobilization minister explained that King Ronnie is still abroad receiving medical care and he will address the public at the right time following the advice of his doctors.
“You know, the King himself warned us concerning people who claim they love the Kingdom so much. So we must be careful with such people because they are the ones on social media making such allegation,” Kiyimba said.
Mayiga informed the Kingdom that King Ronnie traveled abroad in March 2024 and it is the reason why he missed his 69th birthday run and other Kingdom activities including the Buganda Kingdom clan football tournament.
However, there are voices within the Mengo establishment claiming that last week, Kabaka Mutebi returned back into the country and he is resting at his Banda palace.
King Ronnie’s health troubles started in 2020, and he was rushed to Kenya secretly. Mayiga was forced to come out and clear the air. He told Baganda that their King was suffering from an allergy. The King himself also blasted people for pronouncing him dead on social media and assured them that he is still around.
President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni also intervened and King Ronnie was rushed to German to meet the specialized doctors who established that he is suffering from cancer.
Medical specialists from Kenya, Uganda, German, India, United Kingdom are all monitoring the King’s health condition. Mayiga recently assured Baganda that everything is under control.
