Busoga Kingdom and Uganda at large on Thursday 7, 2023 welcomed the good news of the wife of the Kyabazinga, His Royal Highness William Wilberforce Kadhumbula Gabula Nadiope IV, Her Royal Highness Jovia Mutesi.
The Inhebantu’s news was unveiled by the Prime Minister of Busoga Kingdom, Katuukiro Dr. Joseph Muvawala Nsekere, following the highly concealed introduction ceremony which was attended by the few royal subjects of Busoga Kingdom.
After breaking the Inhebantu’s news, at least all the Basoga and Ugandans at large got excited sending in congratulatory messages to the Kyabazinga and the Inhebantu herself.
There are however a number of questions developing as the public is inquisitive, wishing to know the lucky family that gave birth to the Inhebantu?
There are blanket allegations from the public that because of her gorgeous brownish colour and beauty, she could be originating from Western Uganda!
Family Background
Jovia Mutesi, the new Inhebantu comes from the Mwisemugosa clan, which originates from Bugweri district.
She is a daughter to Stanley Bayole, the Resident District Commissioner (RDC) of Namisindwa District. Bayole was once a member of Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) and a strong pillar in Busoga Region until 2015 when he dumped the leading opposition party then for the leading party, the National Resistance Movement (NRM).
He previously served as Mayuge Town Council chairperson until 2011 when he was defeated. Mutesi, the Inhebantu, comes from a deeply political family. Her paternal aunt, Sarah Namumbya served two terms as the Mayuge District Woman Member of Parliament. Her uncle, Richard Kudeeba was a long-serving electoral commissioner of the FDC.
Education background
Mutesi is believed to be 30 years of age. She is a pure Musoga. She is a graduate of Bachelor of Arts in Economics from Makerere University. She has of late been referred to as an Inhebantu of beauty and brains.
She is an old girl from Mt. St. Mary’s College Namagunga in Mukono district. Dr. Judith Nalukwago testified that she shared six years alongside Mutesi, the now Inhebantu of Busoga.
While at Makerere University, Mutesi resided in Olympia Hostel in Kikoni.
She hates or fears water though she loves swimming and dancing.
Holy Marriage
The Katuukiro, Dr. Muvawala on Thursday told the media at Bugembe that the Kyabazinga and Inhebantu will have their holy matrimony on November 8, 2023 at Christ Cathedral Bugembe in Jinja City.
Katuukiro also said that the Inhebantu will also perform some cultural functions that will initiate her into the institution. Upon concluding the traditional ceremonies, she will become the new Inhebantu of Busoga. The most recent one has been the late Alice Muloki who died on November 6, 2005. Alice Muloki was the wife of the late Kyabazinga, Henry Wako Muloki.
