”We have lost one of the people with special business acumen  in Uganda. He was very humble, jovial, generous, very religious, extremely very understanding, a patriot and a nationalist,”  Ngabirano Sam, Kikuubo businessman,  eulogized the hotelier.

Businessman Patrick Bitature eulogizes: “I met Haji Bulaimu Muwanga Kibirige who we fondly know as BMK 30 years ago at an ice cream parlour called Bimbo. We were both members of a group of young and focused men that shared mutual business ethical values, discipline, ambition and willingness to share ideas and opportunities.

He would speak to us all with enthusiasm and didn’t hold back any business trade secrets whilst engaging with us.
These valuable conversations played an instrumental role in guiding and moulding me into the businessman I am today.
Farewell to a great business leader and entrepreneur.
