“Marry from our family again” — Late Edith Katende’s family tells Mufumbiro
The request was made during a vigil and tribute session held at Edith’s ancestral home in Nakulabye on Wednesday.
The family of the late Edith Katende, wife to National Unity Platform (NUP) publicist Alex Waiswa Mufumbiro, has asked him to consider remarrying from within their family following her passing.
The request was made during a vigil and tribute session held at Edith’s ancestral home in Nakulabye on Wednesday.
Speaking on behalf of the family, Edith’s sibling, Richard Ssemakula, expressed appreciation for the love, respect and commitment Mufumbiro showed their sister throughout their relationship.
He noted that the family remains grateful for how Mufumbiro treated Edith from the time they met, through their marriage in 2022, until her passing.
Ssemakula told mourners that, as a family, they are open to Mufumbiro marrying another of Edith’s sisters, saying it would help fill the gap left by her death and maintain the bond between the two families.
The message was delivered to a delegation of in-laws led by Mufumbiro’s twin brother, Kenneth Kato, during the vigil.
Edith Katende passed away on Wednesday after battling cancer.
