The Queen-to-be (Inhebantu), whose identity has since come to be known as Jovia Mutesi, was revealed by the Kingdom’s Prime Minister, Joseph Muvawala, in a colourful press conference a month ago, sending quivering waves of excitement throughout the entire Kingdom.

The Kingdom has since embarked on a fundraising drive to ensure that the wedding, the first of its kind in years, happens to the joy of many.

On Friday, September 22, 2023, the First Deputy Prime Minister, Rebecca Kadaga, launched a fundraising drive for the forthcoming royal wedding, set to take place later this year.

Gabula was introduced to Mutesi's parents in Mayuge district, which paved the way for a traditional nuptial ceremony.

The Kingdom announced that the couple will have a church wedding on November 18, 2023, where Mutesi will be publicly introduced to the entire kingdom as the Inhebantu.

A committee comprising 23 members, which will be in charge of the wedding, was put together.

The royal wedding organising committee is composed of: the presidential affairs minister, Milly Babalanda, as the local governments’ mobilizer; general duties minister Justine Lumumba, as the head of media; KCCA director Dorothy Kisaka, in charge of special assignments; the chairman of the Uganda Moslem supreme council, Dr. Mohammed Lubega, as the general coordinator; and David Batema, the resident judge of Iganga High Court.

Kadaga acknowledged the recipient of sh304 million, which was collected from the members of the organising committee, as a steering wheel ahead of other fundraising drives for the royal wedding.

She further unveiled the centenary bank account, coupled with both the Airtel money and MTN mobile money merchant codes, all registered under the name “The Kyabazinga of Busoga,” where funds from well-wishers across the Busoga subregion and the entire world shall send their monetary contributions with ease.
