Kato Kintu is not to be confused with Kintu, the first person on the earth according to Buganda legend. Kato Kintu gave himself the name Kintu, a name that he knew the Baganda associated with the father of all people. Claim to the throne-Kintu created the kingdom of Buganda by forcefully taking over the five (5) clans that lived in the region. To signify his victory over a clan, he would sleep in the conquered leader’s home; tradition says that Buganda was the name of the first house that he slept in after his victory over Bemba and his tribe. Buganda was later used to refer to the entire area he subdued. Marital life-Kabaka Kintu was married to Nambi Nantuttululu, his chief wife, daughter of Bakazirwendo, of the Ngeye clan. Offspring-He is reported to have fathered the following offspring: Prince (Omulangira) Lukedi, Chief of Bukedi, Prince (Omulangira) Mulanga Kimera, a great hunter who worked iron and introduced the Baganda to eat meat, Kabaka Chwa I Nabakka, Kabaka of Buganda, who reigned in the mid 14th century and Princess (Omumbejja) Nang’oma, Chiefess of Buluuli. Some sources allege that he also fathered: Prince (Omulangira) Winyi, Chief of Kibulala (allegedly Winyi I, Omukama of Bunyoro-Kitara). Prince Winyi married Lady Wannyana, his chief wife, sister of Balitema Kajubi, Chief of Kasujju, Muhima. Together they had two children: (a) Princess (Omumbejja) Musenyu, Chiefess of Kyeeya; the eldest child and (b) Prince (Omulangira) Ntembe, Chief of Busoga. However, other credible sources state that Chwamale Winyi of Kibulala was the elder twin brother of Kato Kintu. Kabaka Kato Kintu died at the age of thirty (30) years. He was buried at Nnono.
