Background As an infant, Kyebambe IV was forced into exile in Ankole and then Buganda due to invasions by the Bunyoro Kingdom. He later met the British colonial agent Captain Frederick Lugard in Buganda and secured his support to regain the throne of Toro. Lugard helped him defeat the Bunyoro forces and re-establish the Tooro Kingdom in 1891. He signed a treaty with the Imperial British East Africa Company (IBEAC) and which was formally installed as Omukama by Lord Lugard in August 1891. Kyebambe played a crucial role in introducing Christianity to the region. Kyebambe converted to the Anglican faith, was baptized Daudi (David) in May 1896, and invited Christian missionaries into his kingdom, with his enclosure becoming a center for Christian teaching.
