Past and present: All regions want Federo but Buganda is louder – Mayiga

Buganda's leader Charles Peter Mayiga has addressed ongoing discussions about federalism in Uganda, clarifying that the push for this governance structure extends beyond the kingdom alone. Mayiga's statements come amid renewed debates about how Uganda should organize its regional administration and power distribution. While Buganda has been vocal in advocating for federal arrangements, the Buganda leader emphasizes that other regions across the country also support this constitutional model. The discussion reflects broader tensions within Uganda regarding centralization of power and regional autonomy. Mayiga's intervention seeks to reframe the federalism debate as a nationwide concern rather than a parochial interest of one kingdom.

The federalism debate shapes Uganda's constitutional future and the balance of power between the central government and regional kingdoms, affecting governance and resource distribution across the nation.
