According to a Friday statement from the Kingdom, Daudi Chwa was the last king to sire twins. They are Kalemera and Kiggala and they were born in 1925.

Buganda culture stipulates that the Kabaka and his wives are free to raise children in the palace despite their origin as long as the Kabaka agrees to it, reads the statement.

The statement also says that these children can call the Kabaka their father and they can also call his wives their mothers.

But the children can not be taken through traditional rituals or be introduced to the kingdom as princes and princesses.

According to the statement, there are many such children in the palace. But when the king sires a child, they are taken through traditional rituals.

In excerpts from the memoir that have been shared on social media, Nabagereka Sylvia Nagginda said that she had twins named Jade Nakato and Jasmine Babirye who were born on December 6, 2010.

The memoir, which is titled ‘The Nnaabagereka of Buganda Queen Sylvia Nagginda Luswata’ will be released on March 23.

Nagginda got married to Kabaka Ronald Muwenda Mutebi in a wedding held at Namirembe Cathedral on August 27, 1999.

Their first child together is Katrina-Sarah Ssangalyambogo, who was born on July 4, 2001, in London. Their other children are Prince Junju Kiweewa, Princess Joan Nassolo, Princess Victoria Nkinzi, and Prince Richard Semakokiro, born in 2009.

According to her Wikipedia entry, Sylvia Nagginda was born in England in 1962 to John Mulumba Luswata and Rebecca Nakintu Musoke. She is from a family of three brothers and three sisters.

The Queen, who has a Bachelor of Arts degree from New York University, started her formal education at Lake Victoria Primary School, then went to Gayaza Junior School, and Wanyange Girls School for secondary education.
