Kooki

The Kingdom of Kooki is a traditional African kingdom in the Rakai District of Uganda.

The kingdom was founded in the year 1720 by two princes of Bunyoro named Bwowe and Kitayimbwa after the death of their father Isansa Gabigogo who was the 15th King of Bunyoro Kitara. Kooki was initially independent until when it was incorporated into the kingdom of Buganda in 1896. Its royal line has continued to the present day, and it is currently led by Kamuswaga Apollo Sansa Kabumbuli II. Much of its history was written by Ssembatya Brian Kaboggoza in his book titled Mayange which means the Royal Drum of the Obwakamuswaga.
