HC Deb 08 May 1923 vol 163 c2179W
Mr. M. WILSON

asked the Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies whether there is any objection to Kabarega, the late king of Uganda, being allowed to return to Bunyoro instead of being forced to reside outside the country; and whether he is aware that no one in East Africa has any objection to his being allowed to finish his life amongst his former people?

Mr. ORMSBY-GORE

In recommending that the ex-King of Bunyoro should be allowed to return to the Uganda Protectorate, the late Governor of Uganda excluded the possibility of his returning to Bunyoro on the ground that he might be made the focus of elements of disaffection, but he made it clear that the present King of Bunyoro had no objection. The present Governor, however, will be asked to give further consideration to the point when Kabarega has completed six months' residence in Uganda.
