Hundreds of monours have attended the requiem mass to bide Farwell to the former Minister of Tourism Maria Emily Mutagamba at Lubaga Cathedral with a reminder to believers to renew their faith for eternity.
The main celebrant the Archbishop of Kampala Dr. Cyprian Kizito Lwanga says Mutagamaba has lived exemplary as a catholic and succeeded in life which many Christians have forgotten with a big number of them ever running around for miracles and worshipping all sorts of things contrary to the Catholic teaching which could be the cause of inhuman criminality like murders, theft, domestic violence and indecency which is rampant in Uganda.
Dr. Lwanga reminded leaders to emulate Mutagamba an accountable and service oriented person for the electorate, charismatic and God fearing.
