She added: “Your Holiness, thank you for the opportunity to meet you.”

According to the pictures shared on her social media, Nabbanja is seen receiving blessings from the Pope.

“I appreciate your time and the Blessings,” she stated.

Papal blessings come in the form of printed certificates or parchment with the name(s) of the recipient(s) and the occasion inscribed on them.

The Premier arrived in Rome in Italy on Sunday before her keynote address to the European Corporate Council on Africa and the Middle East Annual Summit.

She was received by Uganda’s Ambassador and Permanent Representative to Italy H.E. Elizabeth Paula Napeyok, and H.E. Alinemary Kemerwa Kenyangi, the Deputy Head of Mission and Siraji Wakaabu, the Agriculture Attache or the Alternate Permanent Representative to the UN Food and Agriculture Organisation, World Food Programme and the International Fund for Agricultural Development.
