Uganda’s first family could soon be planning a high-profile wedding, as whispers turn into confirmation: Tasha Nkunzi Karugire, granddaughter to President Yoweri Museveni, is officially off the market.
Tasha, daughter of prominent lawyer Edwin Karugire and Natasha Museveni Karugire, recently got engaged in what appears to have been a closely guarded family affair. But as always, secrets don’t stay buried for long—especially when it comes to State House royalty. Leaked photos and short video clips from the engagement ceremony have started circulating online, setting social media abuzz.
The event itself was low-key but elegant, attended by close family and select guests. But the real buzz? Who’s the lucky man?
While no official statement has been released, several sources are pointing toward a high-ranking military connection. The rumored fiancé is believed to be the son of Lt Gen Sam Kavuma, the current Commander of the African Union Transition Mission in Somalia (ATMIS). If true, this would unite two powerful Ugandan families—politics and military coming together in a very modern royal romance.
Talk has already begun about when and where the traditional kwanjula and church wedding might happen. Some insiders speculate it could be sooner than expected, possibly within the next few months.
No word yet from the President or First Lady, but knowing how tightly this family manages its public image, official announcements may come only when the ink is dry on the invitations.
For now, congratulations to Tasha and her mystery fiancé. The countdown to Uganda’s next big society wedding has officially begun.
