The Founding of the clan:

It all happened when the son of King Kintu called Ssebuganda went hunting with his father. Ssebuganda had a stick which he used to kill two lions. The King (father) named the stick Luwaga. But on eating the lions' meat, they developed severe stomach pains, with vomiting. This led them to declare that they would never eat lion's meat again and neither would their children; and so the clan emerged.
