TOORO KINGDOM IN CHAOS: KING OYO BURIED | |THE WILL IS REJECTED || THRONE NOW VACANT

King Oyo Nyimba Kabamba Iguru Rukidi IV was laid to rest at the Karambi Royal Tombs on September 12, 2026 — but instead of bringing closure, his burial has left Tooro Kingdom facing one of its biggest succession crises in decades. While the Tooro Kingdom Prime Minister announced shortly after the King's death that he left behind a young prince as his rightful heir, the Babiito Royal Succession Committee has since moved forward with its own process — first naming George Desmond Kamurasi, then later announcing Prince Edward Kijanangoma Rukidi as the next Omukama. With conflicting claims from the royal family and the succession committee, and no single agreed successor recognized by all sides, the throne remains without a confirmed king. In this video, we break down everything Ugandans need to know: what happened at the burial, why the will and the heir's claim are being disputed, who the contenders are, and what this means for the future of one of Uganda's oldest kingdoms. 🇺🇬 Follow along as we track this developing story. 🔔 Subscribe for more updates on Tooro Kingdom and royal affairs across Uganda. 👍 Like, share, and drop your thoughts in the comments — who do YOU think should be the next Omukama? #TooroKingdom #KingOyo #Uganda #FortPortal #OmukamaWaTooro #UgandaNews #RoyalSuccession
