Ssenkole, who was the deputy executioner, was also the official carrier of the sacred fuse, also known as the royal fire.

Ssenkole, the carrier of the royal fire, never reached Nakiyanja where the killing took place.

On the morning of the execution, Ssenkole brought the sacred fuse from his home in Buwate to a spot then called Suula Engaga (Present day location of the Catholic Shrines).

From here, flames were made on reeds from the sacred fuse and taken to Nakiyanja for the burning of the condemned people.

Due to the crying and wailing as people saw their relatives being marched to death at Jaala's compound, onlookers were describing it in one word, saying Ekyali e wa Jaala, loosely translated as "what was at Jaala's place," hence the name Kyaliwajjala.
