“His death occurs at a time when we received great news of the appointment of His Grace Archbishop Elect Lambert Bainomugisha,” Archdiocese mourns in retaliation.

Yesterday remains a historical day in the Archdiocese as the good news of the appointment of His Grace Archbishop Lambert Bainomugisha still re echoes the ears of the diocese. 

Luigi Bianco, the Popal Nuncio to Uganda openly announced the new appointment to the Archdiocese and also clarified that the Pope also accepted the resignation of the current Archbishop His Grace Paul Kamuza Bakyenga up on clocking the recommended canonical age of 75yrs.

On the death of Fr Mutungirehi, the diocese is consoled that the Lord is speaking rather loud, joy and sadness amidst COVID-19 lockdown thus the twin incidents in the archdiocese.
