The wife of the fallen Assistant Inspector General of Police, Andrew Felix Kaweesi has given birth to a bouncing baby boy two days after her husband was laid to rest in Lwengo district.

The baby was delivered by C-section at Nakasero Hospital in Kampala minutes after 1:00pm.

Police on Thursday afternoon confirmed the development and said the mother was still in the theatre by press time.

Kaweesi, 43, was gunned down on Friday together with his driver and body guard in Kulambiro as they were leaving his home to work.

Kaweesi is survived by a wife and now five children.

At the burial the widow said she will have no answers to give to her children after their father was brutally killed by unknown gunmen. 

Annet was eulogising her husband before his burial on Tuesday afternoon.
She thanked President Museveni, the Police and Nation at large for standing with her family financially, emotionally and spiritually during the toughest time of her life.

"Some of my children are too young and cannot understand what is going on now. I know they will ask questions in the future which I will have no answer to," Annet said.

Questions like why other kids have a father, but they do not have one, she added.
Annet Kaweesi described her late husband as a very good father, good man and one who will be irreplaceable.
