Kateregga of Buganda

Kateregga Kamegere was Kabaka of the Kingdom of Buganda between 1644 and 1674. He was the fourteenth (14th) Kabaka of Buganda.
Claim to the throne.
He was the only son of Kabaka Sekamaanya Kisolo, Kabaka of Buganda, who reigned between 1614 and 1634. His mother was Nabakyaala Nabuuso, the Naabagareka, his father's only wife. He ascended to the throne following the death of his stepfather, allegedly, after killing him by witchcraft around 1644. 
During the reign of Kimbugwe, Prince Kateregga had twin sons. Whilst performing the birth ceremonies in the presence of the Kabaka, Kateregga was accompanied by a different wife instead of the mother of the twins, because the latter was lame. Kimbugwe's inquiry about the absence of the twins' mother angered Kateregga, who stormed out midway the ceremony. Kateregga declared war on Kabaka Kimbugwe, in which he usurped the throne from his cousin.
His reign.
He established his capital at Lugeye Hill.
Kateregga is noted for his violent character, and the persecutions he carried out against the "Ngo" (leopard) clan for their claims to have royal links. Members of the clan found themselves migrating, joining other clans or founding separate clans in order to hide their identity. 
To Buganda's territory, Kateregga added Butambala and Gomba through conquest. He installed his own chiefs in these regions as well is in south Singo. His appointment of royal favourites to administrative positions in the provinces reflects a move away from the indirect rule of clan heads and hereditary chiefs towards more direct rule by the monarchy.

The final years.
