The government owned New Vision is facing a demand to pay 500 million shillings as damages to the woman whose photo they carried claiming it to be the one of the mother of Kabaka’s new baby Prince, Richard Ssemakookiro.

Barbra Patience Kirabo told a news conference in Kampala on Thursday that she has suffered irreparable damage from the publication of her photo as Kabaka’s new mistress.

She says her fiancee who she was to introduce some time this year has called off the relationship following the publication of the photo.

Kirabo also says she is insulted wherever she passes as someone who is breaking Kabaka’s marriage with the Nabagereka of Buganda, Sylvia Nagginda.

Her lawyer, Francis Harimwomugasho, said Kirabo, a mother of one, was injured and is seeking an apology from The New Vision and a compensation of 500 million shillings.

Kirabo appeared at the press conference in the very clothes the picture depicted her in yesterday when the two newspapers claimed they had finally uncovered the identity of the prince’s mother.

It was not possible to get a comment from The New Vision about the controversy, but the Kingdom of Buganda issued a statement denying the photo to be that of Ssemakookiro’s mother.
