Dr Aggrey Kiyingi, a Ugandan doctor who has been practising his profession in Australia has died, Ug Mirror reports.
The cause of his death is yet to be announced and has died at the age of 68.
Mayimuna Nakayiira Kiyingi shared the sad news of her husband’s passing in Australia on social media “with immense sadness and a heavy heart”.
“He peacefully departed from our lives”.
In the post, Nakayiira paid tribute to a “loving father, a wonderful friend and an integral part of our lives”, adding that Kiyingi’s “presence brought immeasurable joy, laughter and warmth to countless moments we shared together”.
The post said details of the funeral and memorial services would be communicated in due course.
Kiyingi got married to Nakayiira in 2009, four years after the murder of his wife.
In 2006, a Ugandan court acquitted Dr Kiyingi of organising the killing of Ms Kiyingi, a prominent corruption-fighting lawyer, who was shot dead outside her home in Uganda.
