Col. Kizza Besigye has said he is still mourning the death of the father of Uganda’s head of state, Mr. Amos Kaguta. Kaguta died at International Hospital Kampala last week. Thousands of people went to witness his burial. Besigye, while meeting his party members at the Forum for Democratic Change (FDC) head offices in Kampala, welcomed all people went to Rwakitura for the final send off of Mr. Kaguta and also to commiserate with president Museveni and his entire family in that trying moment of grief.

But in my observation; Besigye says, he asks himself a question that why was Mzee Kaguta buried at the grave yard single handedly in Rwakitura?

He says that he had expected to see mzee Amos laid at a grave yard where his fore fathers were laid because in African traditions people have continuity of generations and Ugandans have never heard of the president’s grand parents who bore mzee Amos. In African culture people respect ancestors that is why they are buried at the same grave yards. So Besigye in a joking manner wondered whether we only have mzee Amos Kaguta -Yoweri Museveni and Muhoozi Kaineruga. He was seeking clarity on this!
