Karamagi was a technician by profession and was married to his wife, Unity Kobuyenje Karamagi Amooti who passed away in 2015. Surprisingly, they’ve both died on a Thursday.

All Together, Karamagi was blessed with eleven children including Mirembe Musa, Nkwenge Harriet, Batebe Evelyn, Kahooza Voilet, Kalyota Olivia, Karweru Sylvia, Oyo Ryan Karamagi.

Prince Karamagi did not only look after his own biological children, but also played a very important role as parent and guardian to Tooro Crown Prince David Kiijanangoma among others, including the sons and daughters of Rwengoma where everyone knew him as a friend to all.

The Prince leaves a very rich legacy in many Batooro who interacted with him, for being a man of his word, honour and courage that could not be moved easily from his conscience.  It should be remembered that Prince Karamagi was among the prominent Babiito who openly contested Queen mother Best Kemigisa’s interference in the Kingdom affairs, together with her son King Oyo. Infact he has died before Seeing Eye to eye with his son king Oyo since they disagreed on the controversial sale of kingdom properties. Just like his late uncle Jimmy Mugenyi, Karamagi too, has died a bitter man with his son King Oyo. He infact never looked after him till his death.

Karamagi joined prince Kiijanangoma to oppose the status quo at the Karuzika palace there by taking control over the Rwengoma palace where Karamagi has been living.

He will surely be missed in Tooro Kingdom and all the people that his life touched. RIP.
