Mr. Kasamba was officially unveiled as Headmaster King’s College Budo on March 15, 2025, succeeding a very hardworking Can. John Fred Kazibwe, who successfully headed KCB since 2021.
Infact, he assumed office at KCB in November 2021, about four years of commitment and utmost service. Receiving instruments of power, Mr. Kasamba struck a tone of unity and continuity, calling upon the entire Budo fraternity – students, staff, alumni and parents, to join hands in maintaining the top leadership position of this great insititution.
LEGACY: Can. John Fred Kazibwe
Mr. Kasamba said, “The best reward we can give Canon John Fred Kazibwe is to see his legacy carried forward,” emphasizing the importance of collective effort and shared vision.
His message resonated strongly with the audience, reflecting a leadership approach grounded in collaboration, respect for tradition, and forward-thinking ambition.
As King’s College, Budo turns the page to this new era, there is a renewed sense of optimism on Budo Hill. With Mr. Kasamba at the helm, the institution looks poised to build upon its rich heritage while striving for even greater excellence in the years ahead.
Thank you Can. Kazibwe and may God guide Mr. Kasamba in this new office.
