Juliana Kanyomozi’s son will be laid to rest on Friday at Mattuga, Kiryagonja in Uganda. This will be after a memorial service at All Saints Cathedral in Kampala on Friday morning.
Keron Kabugo Raphael passed away at the Aga Khan hospital in Nairobi on Sunday. According to newvision, family members say that Keron suffered an asthma attack while at school two weeks before his passing.
He then developed severe pneumonia that left his lungs badly infected. That led to him being airlifted to Nairobi for further treatment.
Breaking the news to the public, Juliana paid tribute to her son on social media, “What was spreading earlier was a rumour. He passed away at 10:25am this morning. He's been such a fighter. Thank you for praying for my little angel. I will try and be as strong as I possibly can. Rest in peace Keron. Sleep well my son. Till we meet again.”
Keron’s father is businessman Amon Lukwango whose relationship with Juliana ended years back. Juliana has been raising Keron as a single mother.
The casket carrying the body of Keron arrived at Entebbe Airport on Tuesday evening. Keron’s father was present to receive the body. The mother, who sources say accompanied the body, was not visible to the members of public who has shown up to comfort her.
Again we send our deep condolences to Kanyomozi and family.
