How Oyo missed marrying Rwandan princess in 2024

Much as Oyo’s relative appreciated the beauty of the Rwandan princess, she stopped him from marrying her as his official wife. She told Oyo to find a Mutoro, who would perhaps produce a future king of Toro. Oyo was disheartened when his choice of Rwandan princess was discarded. The Rwandan princess was equally disappointed, to the extent of rejecting Oyo’s consolation offer to have her as his second wife, in case he married a Mutoro as the official wife. Despite the upset, the Rwandan princess remained one of Oyo’s best friends. No wonder, when she received the sad news of Oyo’s death, she locked herself inside a house in Nakawa Division and spent two days weeping.
