Before Zari left the country, she was asked to respond to comments made by Ssemwanga’s uncle, Herbert Luyinda, where he said that she was not entitled to inheriting any property she said;
“I was just calm because there is paper work and not even someone’s uncle can just wake up and says he wants this. On top of that, Ivan left kids who will keep the dad’s legacy. I think after realizing that he apologised”, said Zari.
