Former Presidential Press Secretary Tamale Mirundi was laid to rest on Sunday. The ceremony took place in Kalisizo, Kyotera district.
However, the family declined to fulfill his wish to be buried standing.
According to local press reports, the family stated that they could not deviate from the Buganda tradition of laying the deceased to rest while lying down.
The burial ceremony brought together hundreds of people, including the Vice President of Uganda, Jessica Alupo, ministers, members of Parliament, friends, and family.
Tamale Mirundi passed away last Tuesday at Kisubi Hospital in Kampala.
