Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni has disclosed that the King of Tooro, His Highness Oyo, died at the age of 34 after battling an aggressive form of cancer.
Museveni revealed this in a statement posted on his X handle on Saturday, August 29, while extending condolences to the royal family and the people of Tooro.
The President said the Ugandan government supported the late monarch’s family in seeking medical treatment abroad after learning of his diagnosis.
According to Museveni, the government facilitated the King’s treatment in Germany before he was later moved to the United States, where he died.
Museveni described the monarch’s passing as a significant loss to the Kingdom of Tooro and expressed sympathy to the royal family and the people of the kingdom.
