On behalf of the Fort Portal City Marathon, I extend our heartfelt condolences to the Royal Family, the Kingdom of Tooro, and the people of Uganda following the passing of His Majesty Omukama Oyo Nyimba Kabamba Iguru Rukidi IV.

His Majesty will forever hold a special place in the story of the Fort Portal City Marathon. From the very beginning, he welcomed our initiative with warmth and encouragement when we had our early engagement meeting at the Palace. His gracious reception and belief in the vision gave us the much-needed confidence as we sought to build a marathon that would celebrate Tooro, promote healthy living, and bring people together.

His Majesty further honoured us with his presence at the inaugural edition of the Fort Portal City Marathon. Seeing him stand with us at the birth of this initiative remains a cherished memory and a defining moment in our journey. Ahead of our second edition, His Majesty conveyed his regret at being unable to attend, a gesture that spoke volumes about the interest and goodwill he continued to extend towards the marathon and its growing community.

We shall forever remember His Majesty not only as the young and visionary Omukama, but also as a King who embraced initiatives that brought people together and contributed to the development and visibility of Fort Portal and the Kingdom of Tooro.

On behalf of the Fort Portal City Marathon family, I pay tribute to his life, leadership, and enduring legacy.
May His Majesty’s soul rest in eternal peace
