Ntege Kiyimba was Kabaka (King) of the Kingdom of Buganda. He reigned from 1464 to 1484. He was the 6th Kabaka of Buganda.
Claim to the throne
[edit]He was the sixth son of Kabaka Kiggala Mukaabya.[1] His mother was Nabukalu, of the Lugave clan, the first wife of Kabaka Kiggala Mukaabya. He ascended the throne around 1464, when his father abdicated. His reign was unpopular as a result of his cruelty.[1] He died before his father did and was consequently succeeded by his father.
Married life
[edit]He had two wives but fathered no children from either wife:[1]
- Bamuggya, daughter of Kisuule, of the Njaza clan
- Gwojjanjaba, daughter of Gunju, of the Butiko clan.
Death
[edit]He died at Mpummudde and was initially buried at Lukwangu, Busiro. He was succeeded on the throne by his father, around 1484.[citation needed] He is buried at Sentema, Busiro, in modern-day Wakiso District.[2]
