The ruling Kyabazinga of Uganda's Busoga kingdom, William Gabula Nadiope IV, will marry Ms. Jovia Mutesi on Saturday, November 18, in a two-hour ceremony.

The Busoga Kingdom's Prime Minister (Katuukiro), Dr. Joseph Muvawala, revealed on Wednesday that the event will be held at Christ's Church Bugembe in Jinja City from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m.

To prevent any delays, Muvawala has asked guests to arrive for the ceremony between 8:30 and 9 am.

It is anticipated that more than 2,500 people will attend, with Yoweri Museveni, the president of Uganda, serving as the principal celebrant.


It has been requested that male attendees wear suits with bow ties, and female attendees should wear ball gowns.

Muvawala stated that only those who have been invited are permitted entry to Igenge Palace for the reception. This is made possible by invitation cards that have a metallic strip that can be scanned to reveal information about tables and seating configurations.

"The bride will arrive from Mayuge District later, and the king will arrive at Bugembe Cathedral from Kamuli District at 10:45 am. Because the wedding will only last two hours, guests will begin to arrive at 8:30 p.m., according to a quote from Dr. Muvawala that appeared in the Monitor.


The Kyabazinga and his bride will greet their subjects with a procession through Jinja City after the wedding.
