To the people of Tooro sub-region, I extend my deepest condolences on the passing of our beloved son, Kigambo Araali. A renowned cultural singer, Kigambo’s demise leaves an unfillable void in our hearts and the cultural landscape of Tooro.

Kigambo’s music was more than just entertainment; it was a reflection of our values, traditions, and struggles. Through his powerful voice and thought-provoking lyrics, he addressed pressing issues that resonated with our people. His iconic song, “Itaaka Kintu Kikuru” (How Land is Valuable), served as a poignant reminder of the importance of preserving our ancestral land and cultural heritage.

Kigambo’s contributions to Tooro’s cultural identity cannot be overstated. He was a proud ambassador of our traditions, and his music played a significant role in promoting and preserving our cultural values. His passing is not only a loss to his family and friends but also to the entire Tooro community.

As we mourn the loss of this cultural icon, we take comfort in the rich legacy he left behind. Kigambo’s music will continue to inspire and educate future generations about the importance of our cultural heritage. His memory will live on in our hearts, and his songs will remain an integral part of our cultural identity.

To Kigambo’s family, we offer our sincerest condolences. May you find strength and comfort in the knowledge that his music and legacy will continue to touch lives and inspire generations to come.

Rest in peace, Kigambo Arali. Your voice may be silenced, but your music and spirit will live on forever.
