In deference to the historical characteristics of the honours system of the Bunyoro-Kitara Kingdom, the Order does not have an official motto, but its unofficial motto is “Habwomukama, Habwabantu, Habowbwinganisa” (Latin: “Pro Rex, Pro Humanitas, Pro Iustitia”; English: “For the King, For the People, For Justice”).[4]

The Order is one of three royal orders established or reformed in 2010 as a part of a modernization process in the Kingdom,[5] and is listed as a "Non-Ruling Dynastic Honor and Order of Merit" by the Augustan Society.[6]

The Order consists of seven grades, the highest of which is Grand Collar, reserved for Heads of States. Its other classes are (with post nominals):

Clergy can be admitted in the ranks of Prelate Grand Gross (GCCK), Ecclesiastical Commander (ECCK), Senior Chaplain (SChCK) and Chaplain (ChCK).
