Buganda Lukiiko members have asked the Kabaka of Buganda, Ronald Muwenda Mutebi II to produce the mother of the new born prince, Richard Semakokiro.

The Lukiiko members (supreme Buganda kingdom organ) told the Katikkiro of Buganda JB Walusimbi to ask the Kabaka to produce the mother of the new born prince because millions of people across the world want to know her details.

The members of the lukiiko demanded this on Monday after Katikkiro Walusimbi officially announced to Buganda Lukiiko (parliament) the birth of Semakokiro. The new born prince is the second son of the Kabaka of Buganda Ronald Muwenda Mutebi.

Richard Ssemakookiro was born last year. Other children of Kabaka Mutebi are Jjunju Ssuuna Kiweewa, and Princesses; Joan Nassolo , Victoria Nkinzi and Sarah Katrina Sangalyambogo.

A source in Eagles Production told us that Semakula has collaborated with Ronald Mayinja, a member of the same band to produce the song.

Mesach Semakula says that the song is almost complete and he is only making final touches. It was Mega Dee who was the first musician to record a song for Buganda’s new born prince Richard Ssemakookiro. Mega Dee’s song has started enjoying FM airwaves.

Mwasansozi says that if the Kabaka felt it was not necessary for people to talk about the new born prince he wouldn’t have told the Katikkiro to make the matter public.

Mwasansozi says that Buganda has no powers to criticise President Museveni that he is dictatorial when it also not democratic. The Buluri cultural leader reminds the Kabaka and his fellow leaders of Buganda Kingdom that freedom of expression is an inherent human right that is provided for under Article 29 of the Constitution of Uganda.

The Buganda kingdom on Thursday warned against the publication of stories about the kingdom’s baby prince Richard Ssemakookiro and his mother.

In a news statement signed by the Katikkiro (prime minister) of Buganda J.B Walusimbi, Buganda warned that it will no longer accept apologies from people or institutions which intentionally or unintentionally talks ill about the prince and his mother. Mwasansozi says that all that is rubbish because all Ugandans have freedom of speech and expression.

Following the publication of a photograph of a woman who the editorial team of the New Vision Group believed at the time to be the mother of the new born Buganda prince, Richard Semakookiro, the Kabaka of Buganda Ronald Muwenda Mutebi II has asked all people in Uganda and across the world to stop the talk on the new born prince.

Speaking through his Katikkiro (prime minister), Eng. John Baptist Walusimbi, the Kabaka said that the full details about the new born prince and its mother would be revealed at the right time.

The Kabaka says that since the Katikkiro announced the birth of the new prince, several media houses, radio panelists and people on social networks like facebook have written literature and uttered statements that belittle the traditions, norms and virtues ofBugandakingdom. The Kabaka says that although he is a king a remains an individual who has a right to privacy. He says that it is improper for news publications like the New Vision, Bukedde Newspaper, Bukedde TV and all their sister organisations to write lies and belittling stories about the Kingdom of Buganda and the royal family in Buganda.

On January 24, 2012 the Chief Executive Officer of the New Vision Group, Robert Kabushenga authorised the publication of a photograph of a woman, and stated that she was the mother of Prince Richard Ssemakookiro.

Kabushenga apologised to the audiences across the country and the world at large for the mistake and regreted any inconveniences caused to the woman in the picture.

He stated that this was an error of judgment for which he took full responsibility. The Kabaka through his Katikkiro has said that all the information the New Vision and her sister media houses have been publishing concerning the looks of the mother of prince Semakookiro are false.

This is after Barbara Patience Kirabo the woman whose photo was run addressed a rpess conference demaning for an apology and compensation of 500 million shillings for defaming her.

She claimed that the use of her picture has caused her innumerable suffering, including having her fiance cancel their planned wedding later this year, as well as being blamed by people where she passes as the woman spoiling Kabaka’s marriage.

Kabushenga who has tactically released the statement in Luganda says it is clear the picture they ran is not of Nansinkombi and he apologised to Kirabo as well as readers of their newspapers for the misrepresentation.

Here is the full apology in Luganda

Barbra Patience Kirabo told a news conference in Kampala on Thursday that she has suffered irreparable damage from the publication of her photo as Kabaka’s new mistress.

Barbara Patience Kirabo denies being Kabaka prince mother, Nansikombi

She says her fiancee who she was to introduce some time this year has called off the relationship following the publication of the photo.

Kirabo also says she is insulted wherever she passes as someone who is breaking Kabaka’s marriage with the Nabagereka of Buganda, Sylvia Nagginda.

Her lawyer, Francis Harimwomugasho, said Kirabo, a mother of one, was injured and is seeking an apology from The New Vision and a compensation of 500 million shillings.

Kirabo appeared at the press conference in the very clothes the picture depicted her in yesterday when the two newspapers claimed they had finally uncovered the identity of the prince’s mother.

It was not possible to get a comment from The New Vision about the controversy, but the Kingdom of Buganda issued a statement denying the photo to be that of Ssemakookiro’s mother.

Several Ugandans especially the people of Buganda have been so inquisitive regarding details of Prince Ssemakokiro, and his mother Rose Nansikombi.

According to the source, Semakokiro and his mother will return to Uganda soon but still the place where they will be residing will not be open to the public until all the rituals are performed on the mother and the child.

 The Katikkiro of Buganda John Baptist Walusimbi announced the birth of Ssemakookiro a couple of weeks back. The six-month-old prince was named Semakokiro after the 27th King of Buganda, Wasajja Ssemakookiro Nabbunga, who reigned the kingdom from 1797 – 1814. According toBugandatraditions, a prince expecting to take over the throne is not supposed to stay inside the palace. He is supposed to grow up like any other child.
