The Mugabe or Omugabe of Ankole is the title given to the monarch of the kingdom of Ankole in Uganda , what used to be the kingdom of Nkore in pre colonial times, and leader of the Banyankole the people of Ankole . Historically, Ankole was a sovereign entity, but when it was incorporated into modern Uganda in 1901 by the signing of the Ankole Agreement, Omugabe became largely a ceremonial position, an administrative position within the British colonial framework. The term Omugabe is translated in various ways, but is most commonly equated to king . The Omugabe came from the royal Bahinda clan, a clan that is considered an exclusively Bahima clan. The kingship was abolished in 1967 by president Milton Obote. Restoration of the Ankole kingship In 1993 the kingdoms in Uganda were restored by the Traditional Institutions Statute, but president Museveni blocked the restoration of the Ankole kingship, saying that the people of Ankole had to decide. Current crown prince John Patrick Barigye is still fighting for the restoration of the kingship, contrary to his father Charles Gasyonga Gasyonga II who in 1971 opposed the restoration of the kingship.

Wikify date January 2012 Edward Suleiman Kahaya II became Omugabe of Nkore in 1895, when he was around eighteen years old. ref http uqconnect.net zzhsoszy states uganda ankole.html ANKOLE Bot generated title ref Omugabe is the title that was used for the king of Nkore. In 1901, the Kingdom of Nkore was incorporated into the British protectorate of Uganda, and was from now on the Kingdom of Ankole , compromising an area that was twice as large as the original kingdom. The Omugabe was incorporated into the colonial framework of Ankole, a job for which he was certainly not suited, because he was not very clever. Kahaya had lost his relevance and he knew it. Because his kingdom was so much expanded by the British, more than half of its citizens had never been under the rule of the Omugabe. He led a tragic life, in which he became less and less involved in matters of his kingdom. The British treated him as a little child, and in less than a few decades he was relegated from a divine ruler to an administrative clerk. Kayaha died in 1944, and he had been suffering from health problems for decades. This was probably due to his massive physical appearance he was two metres tall and he weighed 136 kilograms. ref J.F.
