Buganda Post has learned that Betty Nambooze will join Katikkiro Dan Muliika, Hussein Kyanjo, Betty Kamya and Daudi Mpanga to complete a blockbuster of speakers at the upcoming Ttabamiruka ‘08. News of Nambooze’s participation comes in the midst of reports that President Yoweri Museveni is set to attend the UNAA convention in Florida and Katikkiro Walisumbi is believed to have authorized willing Mmengo officials to accompany President Museveni to Florida.

It is an open secret in the Ugandan community in the North America that Mr. Museveni has invested heavily in the UNAA convention of 2008 after the unexpected success of Baganda Ttabamiruka ’07. The stakes were further raised by the July 18, 2008 Ttabamiruka inspired Buganda conference in Kampala, where the question of Buganda self determination was a major topic. Efforts to get comments about Mr. Museveni’s trip from the Ugandan embassy in Washington D.C. were unsuccessful.

Before Ttabamiruka ‘08, Nambooze will be speaking at the first Federo conference in London starting on August 22.
