Kabaka Yekka was a monarchist political party in Uganda. The party's name means 'king only' in the Ganda language language, Kabaka being the title of the King of the kingdom of Buganda.
In 1962 Kabaka Yekka merged with Uganda People's Congress and contested the 1962 National Assembly elections — winning 21 seats.
In 1979 Mayanja Nkangi founded the Conservative Party, which is considered to be a transformation of Kabaka Yekka.
