The Kebhu ethnic community in West Nile installed Dr. Kevio Jacob Kebbi III as their monarch during a ceremony at the kingdom headquarters in Kunukezi, Zombo District. The medical doctor and former Yuu Clan chief received traditional instruments of power alongside a 19-member governing council tasked with expanding the kingdom's regional influence following the passing of his predecessor.

Prime Minister Alexis Okecha characterized the enthronement as historic for the multi-ethnic district while urging preservation of the Kebhu language and cultural practices. Father Patrick of Kango Catholic Parish blessed the royal stool and called on the new king to address poverty, discrimination and educational deficiencies affecting his subjects. Delegations from Democratic Republic of Congo communities and Kebhu groups from Bunyoro and Arua witnessed the installation.

The estimated 54,000-member community selects monarchs through clan chief consultations after a nine-month custodial period, with the candidate requiring public endorsement from assembled subjects. The kingdom comprises four chiefdoms represented in a flag bearing yellow, green and red symbolism.
