Katikkiro Charles Peter Mayiga has provided an encouraging update on the health of Kabaka Ronald Mutebi, assuring the public that there is no need for concern as the king's health has significantly improved. Despite this positive news, Mayiga mentioned that Kabaka Mutebi is still under the careful supervision of his medical team to ensure his continued recovery.
In a thoughtfully composed statement aimed at alleviating the worries of the king's subjects, who have been anxious about his prolonged absence from public life, Mayiga called for calm and patience. He explained that the Kabaka is currently resting at the Okonguarri Psychotherapeutic Centre in Namibia. This mental health facility, known for its comprehensive care, was recommended by Kabaka Mutebi's German doctors, who believed that a period of rest in such an environment would be beneficial for his health.
Kabaka Mutebi has been at the expansive Okonguarri facility for more than 70 days now. The centre, which is owned by a German, provides a serene and supportive environment conducive to recovery. The decision to send the Kabaka to this particular facility underscores the importance placed on his health and well-being by his medical team.
The Katikkiro's statement was issued after a meeting with the committee of clan heads, including Prince David Wasajja. During this meeting, it was confirmed that the doctors had advised Kabaka Mutebi to take some time to rest and recuperate. This recommendation was made to ensure that the Kabaka could recover fully without the pressures and demands of his royal duties.
"It is crucial to understand that the Kabaka is not suffering from any illness or confined to bed. He simply needs some time to rest under medical supervision to enhance his well-being," the statement partially read.
This clarification was aimed at dispelling any rumors or misinformation regarding the king's health.
Mayiga emphasized that the Kabaka is expected to return to the country once he has sufficiently recuperated. He reassured the public that the king's health is being carefully monitored and managed, and that there is every reason to be optimistic about his recovery.
The news of Kabaka Mutebi's improving health is a relief to his subjects, who have been eagerly awaiting updates. The Katikkiro's statement not only provided the much-needed information but also reinforced the message of patience and optimism. The community is encouraged to trust in the medical advice being followed and to look forward to the Kabaka's return once he is fully recovered.
