Dr. Makubuya’s legacy in Uganda’s legal landscape is undeniable, and his contributions to the development of the country’s legal system are still celebrated by many in the legal fraternity.
As the family continues to care for their ailing patriarch, they have expressed gratitude for the outpouring of support and encouragement from friends, colleagues, and the general public.
“We are grateful for the love and support we have received so far, and we request continued prayers for our father’s recovery,” the family member said.
