Museveni recognizes the role played by Nyerere in Uganda’s liberation struggles

President Yoweri Museveni has described the late president of Tanzania Mwalimu Julius Kambarage Nyerere as the greatest African leader Africa has had ever. In a speech read for him the Prime Minister Robinah Nabbanja, Museveni said Nyerere was a fearless defender of the oppressed and he was a blessing to the continent of Africa. Nabbanja delivered Museveni’s remarks at the Uganda Martyrs Shrine Namugongo this morning during the annual holy mass to pray for the beatification of Nyerere as a saint in the Catholic Church.
