In 1867 the indomitable Chwa 11 Kabalega mounted the throne of the ailing and emaciated Bunyoro- Kitara and invaded Tooro which was then under the reign of Nyaika Kasunga, the son of Kaboyo 1.
Until the 1830s, Tooro was an integral part of the Bunyoro-Kitara empire, but in 1836 Olimi Kaboyo the oldest and favourite son of Kyebambe III Nyamutukula, the aging Omukama of Bunyoro- Kitara, set up Tooro as an independent Kingdom.
Apparently Kaboyo's successful secession was planned and supported by the Empire's powerful pastoralists of Mwenge, Bufiyangabu, Burahya, Butuku and Busongora who were growing tired of the cultural decline at their empire's court caused by foreign immigrants.
