Renowned stage and drama actor Charles James Ssenkubuge has asked mourners to always put him in their prayers as he has not only lost a wife but a great friend in Agnes Ndagire Ssenkubuge.

 

He said this on Tuesday afternoon during a requiem mass at Christ the King Church in Kampala for his late wife.

 

Ssenkubuge said since his wife died Monday, he fears everywhere, so much so that even entering church he was full of fear, but the holy mass gave him courage, meaning he needs more prayers to get over this.

 

He has also commended Catholic women, saying they are great for marriage as they are very well prepared for that vocation.

 

"I have been with my wife for 35 years. I am a Pentecostal while she has been an active Catholic, and all I can say is that the classes given to these people while preparing them for marriage surely qualify them to be marriage material," he added.

 

Ssenkubuge also said they didn't tell people that Ndagire was sick because these days people are so much obsessed with cameras that they feared some would take photos, which they didn't want.

 

Ndagire is to be buried Wednesday in Sanda, Nakawuka.
