“I send my sincere sympathies to her dear husband and the family, friends, the people of Lango and colleagues!  May her soul find eternal rest.”

Agriculture Minister, Hon Frank Tumwebaze, in his condolence message, described the deceased as “the most senior legislator in our Parliament”.

According to Tumwebaze, despite being in opposition, her positions were always anchored on logic and reason and not extremism

“When I was first appointed as Minister in 2012. She told me “My son, as your mother in this house. I will be rebuking you in this house if you ashame me & do stupid mistakes”. And truly, every time she criticized/rebuked me on issues of work for the sectors I led, I would listen and know it’s out of love and goodwill. True Parent, she was to many of us!”

In his condolence message, Works and Transport Minister, Hon Katumba Wamala, described the late as “a lady who loved her country with passion”. He added: “A nationalist who looked beyond party colours when addressing national issues whether locally or while in international fora. We have lost a political icon!”
