KING ON THE THRONE:A BOOK REVIEW.

By Lambert Brian Rusoke.

Jubireewo, Jubireewo, Jubireewo.Thirty years on the throne for Buganda King, Ronald Muwenda Mutebi II .What a journey it has been. Smooth, bumpy, narrows today, expands the next, full of adventure and techy savvy dynamics, and yet still sticking to the old cultural values and norms that Buganda Kingdom has identified with times on end.

Enter one man that has stood out to narrate the Kingdom's story , and Katikiro Charles Peter Mayiga will gladly and humbly come upfront. It's his book, "King On The Throne", that digests well the nitty gritty of the Kingdom affairs.

Mayiga, presents himself as a faithful son, that has taken?on the trouble to read his father's lips. Such that when his turn to eat comes, he does exactly what the elder potrayed,and even better.

Here is a book written by a man known for his super oratory skills. The writing in this book, blends so well with a lay man just as when he is on the podium. Simple language, easy to follow narrations and at large, a good account of chronological events, poured out by a lawyer who worked on his research well, but better still grew up and lived with the cultural set up that is Buganda.

In here, lies a story of a young man, growing up in Buganda Kingdom circles, admiring the style, acknowledging the brand and finally practicing it, and to the brim.

Where there has been a disagreement of views from the Central Government and others, Mayiga doesn't mince his words and has stood for what his King believes is rightful for the generations to come.

If i were to "Read Out Loud ",then the whole book would be a recommendation for any listening ear?." I can't just pick out one page ,or one chapter.

It's a Buganda Kingdom narration by a man whose knowledge of events surrounding Buganda Kingdom?are second to a few. But above all, a man who is ready to fight for his King's super values and beliefs for his people. Especially, the youth with a hope of leading tommorrow.
