Yesterday over 100 Baganda elders gathered at Ntejeru District headquarters to discuss the blockage of the Kabaka's visit to the district but the meeting ended prematurely after the speaker Bugerere elder's council, Mr John Lubega, urged the Bataka to keep calm over the matter and wait for the outcome of a meeting between Capt. Kimeze, State Minister for Elderly Affairs Sulaiman Madada and Kayunga District leadership in the chairman's office. .
