In a statement to the media earlier in the week, Josephine Mayanja Nkangia had said, “Until this week, we didn’t really know what the extent of the damage was. The doctors said it was pneumonia. However, on Sunday, my father took a turn for the worse. An oncologist was called in and on Monday, we learnt that dad is seriously ill.” 

Mr Nkangi retired from public service in 2014 after a career spanning over 50 years both in the service of the government of Uganda and the kingdom of Buganda.

Nkangi had previously served as minister of finance, Attorney General and Justice and Constitutional Affairs minister. He was the Katikkiro (Prime Minister) of Buganda during the 1966 crisis.
