The Vision Group CEO Robert Kabushenga has apologised for the using the picture of another woman they claimed was Rose Nansinkombi, the mother of Kabaka Mutebei’s new Prince Richard Ssemakookiro.

This is after Barbara Patience Kirabo the woman whose photo was run addressed a rpess conference demaning for an apology and compensation of 500 million shillings for defaming her.

She claimed that the use of her picture has caused her innumerable suffering, including having her fiance cancel their planned wedding later this year, as well as being blamed by people where she passes as the woman spoiling Kabaka’s marriage.

Kabushenga who has tactically released the statement in Luganda says it is clear the picture they ran is not of Nansinkombi and he apologised to Kirabo as well as readers of their newspapers for the misrepresentation.

Here is the full apology in Luganda
