To what extent was Apolo Kagwa’s collaboration with the British beneficial for Buganda?

The question requires that candidates consider the effects for Buganda of Apolo Kagwa’s collaboration with the British. While assessment of the consequences of his collaboration may extend beyond the timeframe, points made must be clearly linked to the issue raised in the question. Candidates may refer to the 1900 Uganda Act, in which Kagwa accepted a protectorate and loss of independence in return for limited Bugandan autonomy, Buganda’s subsequent exercise of sub-imperialism over rival groups, and Britain’s continued dependence on the administrative abilities of the Protestant Bakungu chiefs. While other relevant factors, for example the failure of Kabaka Mwanga’s earlier policies of resistance, may be referred to, the bulk of the response will remain on the issue raised in the question.
