Exile of the king[edit]
In 1966, Mutesa's estrangement from Obote merged with another crisis. Obote faced a possible removal from office by factional infighting within his own party. He had the other four leading members of his party arrested and detained, and then suspended the federal constitution and declared himself President of Uganda in February 1966, deposing Muteesa. The Buganda regional Parliament passed a resolution in May 1966 declaring that de jure Buganda's incorporation into Uganda had ended with the suspension of the constitution and requesting the federal government to vacate the capital city, which was in Buganda. Obote responded with an armed attack upon the Kabaka's palace, sending Mutesa into exile in the United Kingdom via Burundi, and in 1967 a new constitution abolished all of Uganda's kingdoms, including Buganda.[6] The attack lead by obote on the palace of buganda left a bloodshed be remembered where the kabaka had to be fled out of his own palace and hide around until he would be led out of Uganda to Britain london where he evenually died of alcohol poisioning.flat, No. 28 Orchard House in Rotherhithe, in 1969[7]. which was sad news for him as a person who had the kingom and the king at heart.

In January 1971, Obote was overthrown by the army while on a visit to Singapore to attend a Commonwealth conference, and Amin became President. In the two years before the coup Obote's relations with the West had become strained. Some have suggested that Western Governments were at least aware of, and may have aided, the coup. Obote fled to Tanzania. The fall of Obote's regime was welcomed and celebrated by many Ugandans[8] like Augustine Musoke Bakaluba that were freed from prizon to rejoin with his family.
