The Buganda Agreement of 1900 formed the basis of British relations with Buganda for more than 50 years. The agreement recognized the kabaka as ruler as long as he remained faithful to the protecting authority. His council of chiefs, the lukiko, was given statutory recognition. The leading chiefs benefited most from the agreement, since, in addition to acquiring greater authority, they were also granted land in freehold to ensure their support for the negotiations.
