The flamboyant Kasango has been in prison on a journey of serving a 16-year sentence handed to him in 2018 by the Anti-Corruption court judge Margaret Tibulya for theft of Shs 15.4 billion meant for pensioners.
Kasango appealed the sentence, and the Court of Appeal justices led by Catherine Bamugemereire were yet to decide on his application. Kasango unsuccessfully applied for bail twice in the Court of Appeal.

The kingdom of Tooro is more famous for its scenic undulating hills, picturesque crater lakes and pretty women, than it is for rousing any sorts of rabble on the national stage, even on the days it is expected to. But this wasn’t the case between 2013 to 2016, when a member of the kingdom’s royal family went rogue and attempted to dethrone the king, Omukama Oyo Nyimba.
Prince David Kijanangoma, had together with a group of elders and kingdom subjects, mounted a spirited onslaught that threatened to split the kingdom. They, among other things, accused the Omukama, of abdicating his throne by staying in Kampala, and failing to stop his mother, Best Kemigisa, from meddling in kingdom affairs.
