The Kyabazinga of Busoga, His Majesty William Wilberforce Gabula Nadiope IV, has graduated from Yale University with a Master of Advanced Studies in Global Affairs, adding a new academic distinction to his role as a traditional leader in Uganda.

The milestone was marked during Yale’s 324th Commencement Ceremony, held on the university’s historic Old Campus. Thousands of graduates from Yale’s colleges and professional schools took part in the event, which drew dignitaries, academics, and families from around the world.

The Kyabazinga was accompanied by Her Royal Highness Jovia Mutesi, the Inhebantu (Queen) of Busoga since 2023. The couple represent one of Uganda’s four constitutionally recognised monarchies, a cultural institution that continues to play a significant role in community development and identity.

Back home, the monarch’s achievement has been widely lauded. Among the first to offer congratulations was Don Wanyama, CEO and Managing Director of Vision Group, who praised the Kyabazinga’s commitment to education and leadership.

“His Majesty has set the education tone for his subjects and other young people,” Mr Wanyama wrote on X, formerly Twitter. “This is his second Master’s degree, after earning an MBA from Coventry University in the UK. He is also currently pursuing a PhD at the University of Portsmouth. Congratulations!”

The Kyabazinga himself reflected on the occasion by sharing two quotes on his official social media account: one from Benjamin Franklin—“An investment in knowledge pays the best interest”—and another from Eleanor Roosevelt—“The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.”

His words resonated across the Busoga sub-region and beyond, where many young Ugandans see the monarch as more than a cultural figurehead. To them, he is an example of modern leadership—one that bridges tradition with global relevance.

The Master of Advanced Studies in Global Affairs is a rigorous postgraduate programme that covers diplomacy, international policy, and governance—areas that align with the Kyabazinga’s growing engagement as a cultural ambassador and development advocate on the international stage.

Yale’s Commencement Weekend, which ran from 17 to 19 May, featured a range of activities including the Baccalaureate Service and Class Day. The university also honoured outstanding students for academic, athletic, and community achievements.

The Kyabazinga’s presence among the graduating class reflects a broader trend of African royalty increasingly engaging with global institutions and thought leadership. His academic success is being seen in Uganda as a powerful message—that education remains a key pillar of personal growth, national development, and international representation.
