The Omukama of Tooro Kingdom, His Majesty Edward Rukiidi Nyabongo I, has directed the interim Prime Minister, his cabinet and all Kingdom departments to submit reports on their work to the Supreme Council before November 12th, 2026.
While opening the Tooro Kingdom Supreme Council meeting at Mucwa Chambers in Fort Portal City, Omukama Nyabongo said the appointment of the Right Honourable Calvin Armstrong Rwomiire as interim Omuhikirwa was intended to guide the Kingdom through a transition period and not to establish a new permanent administration.
The Omukama tasked Rwomiire with presenting a comprehensive report detailing the work undertaken, achievements registered and outstanding tasks, saying the report would provide a clear account of the Kingdom’s affairs and guide the next course of action.
He emphasized the need for accountability in the management of Kingdom resources, noting that the institution has a responsibility to account to the central government, the Office of the President, corporate sponsors, donors and other friends of Tooro who support its activities.
Omukama Nyabongo said the Supreme Council would examine the reports within seven days and submit its advice and recommendations to his office by November 19th. His office would then take another seven days to consider the recommendations before reconvening the council on November 27th, when he is expected to communicate his response.
He also urged individuals whose appointments to positions in the interim administration may have been made in error to remain calm and patient as the Supreme Council examines the matter and reaches a decision.
Following the directive, the Supreme Council constituted a seven-member committee, chaired by the Speaker, to follow up on the submission of the report by the interim Prime Minister.
The seven members are Asuman Kisembo, Sam Mugisa, Adolf Kamara, Amos Monday, Florence Mugenyi, Nyamurambara Mugisa and Mutamba Olivia.
