- KYABAZINGA INTRODUCES INHEBANTU JOVIA MUTESI TO PRESIDENT MUSEVENI AND FIRST LADY JANET MUSEVENI
Kyabazinga of Busoga William Gabula Nadiope IV has introduced his wife and Inhebantu of Busoga Jovia Mutesi to President Yoweri Museveni and First Lady Janet Museveni.
Kyabazinga made the introduction while at luncheon at State House Entebbe which was hosted by President Museveni and First Lady Janet Museveni at State House in Entebbe on Friday.
President Museveni started his speech by thanking God for enabling him to work with three generations of the Gabulas and also told his guests history about those generations.
He said that in 1966 when he was 22 or 21 years old, he was already active and connected working with the group to which Kyabazinga’s grandfather Sir William Wilberforce Nadiope belonged in the first generation.
He also worked with Wilson Nadiope the father of the Kyabazinga in the then government in the second generation and now he is working with William Gabula Nadiope IV in this third generation.
“I thank Gabula for getting a wife and bringing her to introduce her to us, Maama Janet and I; because I always call him mutabanyi, so he has brought the mukamwana to the bazadde and we are happy with that,” President said.
Museveni said “I welcome the Inhebantu for joining our son Gabula and coming in with a highly developed product, because she told me she is a financial analyst and accountant.”
Museveni further gifted the Kyabazinga and Inhebantu with 100 cows and also gifted the family of Inhebantu Jovia Mutesi led by her father Stephen Bayoole with Twenty cows as gratitude.
He requested Inhebantu to use her professional skills to help her with the Basoga because many have failed to use the four acre model of farming using ekibalo adding that the four acre model is in the NRM Manifesto.
“As we were talking before we came here, while in a meeting with His Highness, he assured me, and Muvawala just repeated it here that you will use your traditional structures to push out this message of the four acre model,” Museveni said.
The President was happy to see the tolerance of diversity after hearing speeches from the Balamoji led by second deputy Prime Minister of Busoga Al-Haji Osman Ahmed Noor and Kaliro district L.C 5 chairperson Elijah Kagoda.
President Museveni said that while in a meeting with Gabula, he (Gabula) was grateful and happy for the Palace he built at Igenge hill.
That Gabula also reminded him about government returning the Kingdom’s property (Ebyaiffe) to ObwaKyabazinga Bwa Busoga Institution as he did for the Baganda, tarmacking of other major roads in Busoga which include the Jinja-Budondo Mbulamuti, Kamuli to Bukungu and Iganga via Luuka to Kamuli road adding that he also requested him (Museveni) to see how he can harmonize fishing on Lake Victoria.
The President also revealed that he is also going to support funding for construction of the headquarters of ObwaKyabazinga Bwa Busoga in Jinja.
First Lady Janet Museveni in a special way welcomed the Inhebantu at State House and congratulated her and the Kyabazinga upon having a fruitful royal wedding.
She saluted the Inhebantu for graciously embracing the role of serving as a Patron for Neyendeire Development Initiative in Busoga region that was formed in 2022 by her office and some women leaders from Busoga.
“The reason why God gives us leadership is to serve his people, if you use your platform Inhebantu to serve God’s people there is nothing you will fail in your business and as Mzee, the President has always said that when you do God’s business, he takes care of your own business,” the First Lady said.
She further said that she has no doubt in her mind that Busoga will be blessed by its Inhebantu because God will guide her and because of her relationship with the Lord and because of her prayer life, she will be a blessing to Busoga sub region.
The First Lady urged the Kyabazinga and Inhebantu to seek God’s wisdom before they embark on anything and quoted the wise King Solomon in proverbs 16:30 that says that ‘Commit your work to the Lord and your plans will be established’.
Prior to President Museveni and the First Lady’s speech, Kyabazinga of Busoga William Gabula Nadiope IV also introduced his family members and the family of Inhebantu before the President.
In her remarks, Inhebantu Jovia Mutesi appreciated President Museveni for his priceless service he has rendered to Busoga and Nation at large.
In a special way, Jovia Mutesi appreciated President Museveni’s contribution, wisdom and wise advise to her and the Kyabazinga which resulted in a successful royal wedding on November 18th, 2023.
Inhebantu also appreciated the First Lady for her invaluable service she has offered in the country which include promoting education and initiating programs that transform women and youth among others. -End-
