Fallen Lawyer Bob Kasango to be buried at his farm in Fort Portal, and not Tororo

By Jeremiah Kaniampiha 

The current debate about the burial place of  fallen lawyer Bob Kasango is straight forward. What does his will say? The Will, according to his closest relatives, states or indicates he will be buried at his farm in Fort Portal, and not Tororo where he originally comes from.

A brilliant lawyer, who saved many from the chains of mafia/Babylonians, but only to succumb to their nets. He reportedly did not die, but was killed by perverted system.

Friends, describe the late Bob Kasango as a resilient, a tenacious fighter, and a high spirited fellow who did more good for the chained people, and did less for himself. It is on record that, Kasango helped more than 50 prisoners through his connections and free legal advise to leave Luzira prison, as he was being chained in there.

Before being put to prison, he had spent a year while being diagnosed with a heart problem which was keeping him the hospital on and off. He could barely walk and could spend days on oxygen.

Bob Kasango rarely complained about the injustice he was facing from the ‘invincible’ hand of whatever mafia was behind his woes. Friends allege that he well knew he was innocent, but could not fight back to get away from jail. He never allowed jail to bring his fighting spirit down, he instead used the time there to preach peace.

Instead of being a prisoner, he instead became a lecturer teaching law at prison, helped inmates to get international degrees from University of London. He continued to help inmates to convene and pray, fellowship, get closer to God as he invited prison officials to communion with him and other inmates.

Friends of Bob again believe that he did not die, but he fulfilled his call through touching more lives and giving them more hope to life. They believe that he was the Socrates surrounded by Plato, Crito, Aristophanes, Antisthenes, Xenophon, Alcibiades and more. He had a wife called Nice, had three children including Samora, Stephie and Ivana. May his should rest peacefully.
