Kadaga, now a deputy prime minister, said the government, NRM party and country had lost a key leader.

“At this trying moment, I send sincere condolences to the children, the mother and other members of Rt Hon Oulanyah’s family as well as friends and relatives,” wrote Kadaga.

“The NRM party, the Parliament and the Country have lost a key leader. Condolences to HE the President.”
