FAQs

What happened to the Buganda kingdom after Uganda became independent?

Buganda was abolished in 1967 and restored in 1993.

When Uganda became independent in 1962, the Buganda kingdom was given considerable autonomy and special federal status within the new nation. Tensions with the central government grew, and in 1967 Prime Minister Milton Obote abolished Buganda and the country's three other traditional kingdoms. The Buganda kingdom was not restored until 1993.
