–
Neutral summary
George Desmond Kamurasi, the 36-year-old captain of non-league side SE Dons in Bexleyheath, south-east London, has been selected by the Tooro Royal Succession Committee as the next ruler of the Tooro Kingdom in Uganda. He is a cousin of the late King Oyo Nyimba Kabamba Iguru Rukidi IV, who died in the United States on August 27 at the age of 34 while receiving treatment for cancer. King Oyo, who ascended the throne at three in 1995 as the world's youngest reigning monarch, died without an heir. Kamurasi, a British national, is now expected to trade grassroots football for the throne of the traditional kingdom, which has an estimated population of 800,000.
