ADDING SOME DOTS So, when Omukama Olimi Rukidi III named his son, Kaboyo, as heir to the throne, he bypassed his eldest son, Kijanangoma. Kaboyo later became the father of Oyo. The Kijanangoma family feels that they were denied their rightful claim to the throne when Rukidi III chose Kaboyo, the younger brother, as his successor inside of his elder son. Kijanangoma, the firstborn, was instead placed third in the line of succession. When Oyo eventually took over the throne, Kijanangoma contested the succession and sought to revive the old will of Kaboyo, that the kingship should fo to their family. Following the death of Oyo, Kijanangoma’s family continues to insist they should be installed as king, based on the succession arrangements established under Rukidi III’s will. Remember a few days back, they had suggested Desmond Kamurasi who comes from the second line of succession after Kaboyo, Mugenyi family. The Mugenyi family I think seeing a lot fights decided to stay out of these kingship conflicts. Now Muhanga comes in, team Kijanangoma, he would have wanted Mugenyi family to oust Kemigisa but their not interested, then why not try Kijanangoma, the elder cousin in the entire kingdom was hence selected. The will is read, naming Omusuga’s sons sons as potential heir to throne invade the Oyo’s alleged son is not able, but then Omusuga can’t appoint his own son when Oyo’s son is there, it would be the greatest conflict of interest, selfishness and blunder ever. The will put a rope in Omusuga’s neck, declare the son or make a blunder of your life and lose the legitmacy. Whether Omusuga knew this will or not it doesn’t favour him or his sons, it is the most tactical will ever made in history of Uganda.
