Tooro succession: Batooro gift Musuuga Shs180m land cruiser for 'standing firm'

The keys were first presented to Fr. Isiah Mayombo, chairman of the central organizing committee for the upcoming coronation, who subsequently handed them over to Mr. Kamurasi.

Omujwera Musuuga Charles Kamurasi was on Saturday afternoon handed a brand-new Toyota Land Cruiser TX worth Shs180 million in an unusual vote of confidence following weeks at the center of Tooro Kingdom's turbulent succession process.

The white vehicle was driven into the grounds of Karuziika Palace in Fort Portal, where the 80-year-old Musuuga received its keys amid applause and chants of “Musuuga Juu,” a phrase that has grown increasingly popular among his supporters during the succession dispute.
