Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>Ernest Kakwano, 89, has bowed out after living an illustrious life.<\/b><\/p>\n

Kakwano and his family will be especially remembered for smuggling Museveni\u2019s children out of the country, just two days before he launched the protracted Luweero Triangle Bush War that ran from 1981 to 1986.<\/p>\n

A trained accountant and an astute businessman, Kakwano played a crucial role in drafting recruits into NRM ranks to fight in the bush war that eventually ushered the NRA\/NRM to power in January 1986.<\/p>\n

Those close to Kakwano describe him as a principled man who had the charm of winning support from the unlikeliest of the people. Only days before Museveni and his rebels launched the brutal five-year guerilla war, Kakwano\u2019s wife is said to have driven Museveni\u2019s family across the borders into Kenya.<\/p>\n

\u201cKakwano was an active member of UPM [Uganda Patriotic Movement] and was always fond of President Museveni. His wife Alice Kinkuhaire is the one who drove Museveni\u2019s children Natasha, Muhoozi, and other sisters into Kenya. While Kakwano was a member of the external committee of the National Resistance Army (NRA) in Nairobi, he hosted all the injured members of the struggle, including Lt Gen Henry Tumukunde.<\/p>\n

Lt Gen Tumukunde yesterday described Kakwano as a hero who sustained the rebellion that ushered in the NRM government in 1986.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis morning, I received a call informing me of the passing of a dear friend, hero and committed member of the NRA\/NRM External Wing, Comrade Ernest Kakwano. Ernest and his wife Alice were part of the support system that sustained the struggle both in Uganda and in exile. The Kakwanos, alongside several other NRA External Wing members, provided unwavering support to many injured NRA combatants-turned refugees, including myself and others, in every possible manner, often in very risky circumstances,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am grateful to the Almighty for the life and works of Ernest. My deepest and heartfelt condolences go to you, Alice, the children, family, friends and the veterans of the NRA struggle. May his soul rest in eternal peace,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Dr Ruhakana Rugunda, the former prime minister of Uganda, yesterday said Kakwano played a critical role in ensuring that State enterprises became profitable ventures at a time when the economic situation was very dire.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy family and I have, with deep sorrow, received the sad news of the passing of our comrade, Ernest Kakwano. Ernest Kakwano and his wife Alice are outstanding patriots who strongly supported and worked for the NRM\/Army, both during and after [Luweero Bush War] liberation,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cErnest, a trained accountant and an accomplished businessman, assisted a number of State enterprises, to stand on their own and to become commercially viable under challenging circumstances. Comrade Kakwano leaves a legacy of love and sacrifice for his country, hard work, and dependability. We convey our sympathies and condolences to Alice, the children, and the country. May Ernest Kakwano\u2019s soul rest in eternal peace,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

Mr Elly Karuhanga, the former Nyabushozi County Member of Parliament, said Kakwano, the son of late Bagunda and Bwerere, was a soft-spoken person who was liked and loved by many because of his attractive and magnetic personality.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am probably the only person in his generation who knows him from his childhood in Primary School at Kyamuhunga, which I and my brother.too attended. Our families were extremely connected because his father and his uncles grew up as young children at our grandfather\u2019s place. He belongs to the Basiita clan but I am of the Bashambu clan, but our families are intertwined and it was difficult to know whether he was a Musiita or not,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI can describe him as a very humble, soft-spoken personality. He was an extremely likable, attractive and magnetic personality and exuded trust and confidence while we enjoyed his company,\u201d Karuhanga added.<\/p>\n

He also said Kakwano was a difficult man to walk away from once he sat down with one for a conversation.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe had a trait of complimenting other people in their absence. He appreciated the positive side of his friends and completely downplayed their negative,\u201d Karuhanga said.<\/p>\n

Kakwano, a trained accountant, studied at Uganda College of Commerce Nakawa before joining Nairobi University for a Bachelor of Commerce.<\/p>\n

While in Nairobi, Kakwano was with current ministers Matia Kasaija of Finance, Francis Mwebesa of Trade and Cooperatives, and others. After graduation, Kakwano had a teaching stint at Mbarara High School. He thereafter worked at Kilembe Mines, and headed the Uganda Coffee Marketing Board from 1987 until he retired.<\/p>\n

He was also the chairman of Kampala Club for five years. The Club, in the heart of Kampala in the upscale Nakasero suburb, is famed for hosting the who is who in the country\u2019s high social and professional fields.<\/p>\n

What they said…<\/b>
\nOdrek Rwabwogo, President Museveni\u2019s son-in-law<\/b><\/p>\n

\u2018\u2018Kakwano was a gentle man who rose through the ranks and was one of the first Ugandans to own a car dealership.<\/p>\n

\u201cErnest Kakwano who passed away on Easter Sunday at 89 was a gentle, gracious man and friend of many young people. He was a committed entrepreneur starting in 1975 with his own car dealership and ending up with a printing house in Entebbe when he left the Coffee Marketing Board. We gave him a mentorship award in 2023,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Michael Katungi<\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cWe extend our heartfelt condolences to the family of our great patriot, elder, and statesman Ernest Kakwano. His contribution towards the NRA\u2019s revolutionary struggle here and abroad remains imprinted in our hearts. God speed. R.I.P.\u201d<\/p>\n

Asan Kasingye, former Assistant IGP<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2018Sad news. He welcomed me to Entebbe, my first duty station in 1990, gave me the insight of the area and gave me a weekly crime prevention strip in the \u2018Market Place\u2019 his newspaper. He was patriotic, helpful and thoughtful. May His soul rest in eternal peace.\u201d<\/p>\n

Augustine Ruzindana<\/b><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s very sad. I\u2019ve just learned of the death of a dear friend, Ernest Kakwano. I talked to him in January and I didn\u2019t think his life was threatened in any way. He and his wife Alice contributed tremendously during the 1981-1986 [Luweero Triangle Bush War] struggle. Rest in Peace,\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Dr Ruhakana Rugunda, Special Envoy for Special Duties, Office of the President<\/b><\/p>\n

\u2018\u2018My family and I have, with deep sorrow, received the sad news of the passing of our comrade Ernest Kakwano. Ernest Kakwano and his wife Alice are outstanding patriots who strongly supported and worked for the @NRMOnline, Army, both during and after liberation. Ernest, a trained accountant and an accomplished businessman, assisted several state enterprises, to stand on their own and to become commercially viable, under challenging circumstances. Comrade Kakwano leaves a legacy of love and sacrifice for his country, hard work and dependability. We convey our sympathies and condolences to Alice, the children, and the country. May Ernest Kakwano\u2019s soul rest in eternal peace.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n
