Charles Peter Mayiga is a Ugandan lawyer, cultural leader and author. He is the current Katikkiro (Prime Minister) in the government of Buganda, a constitutional monarchy in present-day Uganda. He was appointed to that position by the reigning Kabaka of Buganda, His Majesty Muwenda Mutebi II of Buganda, in May 2013, replacing Engineer John Baptist Walusimbi.

Charles Peter Mayiga was born in Kasanje Village, Kabonera Parish, Masaka District, Central Uganda. His parents are Ssaalongo Cyprian Mukasa and Nnaalongo Rebecca Kyese Mukasa. He attended Butale Primary School and Nkoni Primary School. For his O-Level education, he attended St. Henry's College Kitovu. Later, he studied at St. Mary's College Kisubi for his A-Level. He holds the degree of Bachelor of Laws (LLB), from Makerere University, Uganda's oldest and largest public university. He also holds the Diploma in Legal Practice, obtained from the Law Development Center, in Kampala Uganda's capital city.

Starting in 1987, Charles Peter Mayiga has been working closely with the elders of the Kingdom of Buganda, sharpening his knowledge and understanding of the customs and traditions of Buganda. While still at Makerere University in the 1980s, he was one of the students who started the youth organization called Nkoba za Mbogo, a cultural association whose primary objective is to educate the Baganda youth about their culture and to support the Kabaka's projects for the development of Buganda.
