Her Royal Highness, the Nnabagereka, Queen Sylvia of Buganda. "She became patron of CTPH in 2005 and during this time she visited Bwindi to launch CTPH programs as well as track the critically endangered mountain gorillas. She became the first queen in the world to track the mountain gorillas, where she named an infant gorilla from the Habinyanja Gorilla Group whose mother is “Mukeikuru” meaning “old”. She named the gorilla “Ntuuse” meaning “I have arrived.” During the launch she presented certificates to students who had recently completed the CTPH sponsored certificate in basic compute skills from Makerere University’s Gender and Technology Outreach program."
