\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u201cShe helped him (late Paul Muwanga) to raise and nurture the children into responsible citizens and held the family fabric together even after the death of her husband,\u201d President Museveni said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He added: \u201cAll those who associated with the late Nalongo Kasalina must be proud of the legacy she has left behind, and the sense of bereavement that you feel now, should not diminish her beautiful memory.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The president contributed Shs 10m to the family to assist them in burial arrangements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The requiem celebration was led by Rev Saulo Masembe, the Archdeacon of Central Buganda Diocese of the Church of Uganda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The service was co-celebrated by Rev Samuel Katabula Kibuuka of Namasuba Parish, Namirembe Diocese who called for unity and collective effort to change the spiritual and physical world regardless of our political affiliations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe deceased advocated for peace. Even when she met the President at Kololo one time, she requested him to continue providing peace to this country,\u201d Rev Kibuuka said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He added: \u201cLet us work as a family for the betterment and development of our country  as we move forward. Politics should not split us.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nalongo Zawedde died at the age of 92.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr Suzie Nansozi Muwanga, the daughter of the deceased who represented the children, recounted the love their mother showed them especially during the absence of their father.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cYou remember very well our dad was always away from home, during the guerilla war and when he died but our dear mum has been there all the time,\u201d Dr Muwanga said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She added: \u201cWe promise to keep that legacy and live the exemplary life she showed us ..\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr Nansozi appreciated President Museveni  for loving their family despite their late father being a member of an opposition political party and standing with the family in all situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHe (President Museveni) spared some time and visited our mother and even made phone calls and spoke in Runyankore. We cannot take that  for granted. We are grateful for his support to our family .\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
