THE LATE JOHN SERUNJOGI REPRESENTS THE CALIBRE OF INTELLECTUALS WHO WENT THROUGH NAMUTAMBA TEACHERS’ COLLEGE FOR WHOM THE SKY HAS BEEN THE LIMIT.



Late John Serunjogi trained as a Grade II Teacher at Namutamba Teachers’ College (NTC). That time, NTC had many students who were bright but did not have a good financial background. John Serunjogi belonged to that class. In 1969 Late Serunjogi was a teacher of Primary 6 at the Demonstration School. He loved Geography. He is the type of person who showed that he was smart, intelligent and confident. Some years’ back, I met him in Mityana and he told me about his research works regarding Lake Wamala.

Like many who graduated as Grade II Teachers at Namutamba TTC, John Serunjogi read higher to degree level.

John Serunjogi while in Mityana took up business as a Coffee trader. He linked up with Late Mubiru of Namutamba and helped him market Coffee.

“A GREAT LOSS OF AN INTELLECTUAL JOHN SERUNJOGI.

From a Grade II Primary teacher at Namutamba to a graduate teacher. A businessman in Coffee. A former Chairman PAC Mityana District, 

Founder of MASE Junior School, Mityana.

REST IN PEACE”.

A TESTIMONY BY JOHN SERUNJOGI’S NEIGHBOUR - JOHNSON SSENGENDO.

John Serunjogi was my good friend and my neighbor. has past on, He was one of the senior citizens of Mityana municipality and district at large. He served at the district on Mityana Public Accounts Committee (PAC)  for some time. He was a strong Christian at All Saints Church Busimbi Mityana Diocese. He was the husband to Late Margaret Serunjogi  the former Mother's Union President - Mityana Diocese who died in 2013.

John Serunjogi fought for the betterment of Mityana District from the time when it was  Under Mubende District. He is one of those who struggled for Mityana to become a district on its own. 

John and his dear wife worked closely with all Mityana Diocesan Bishops since the time of Late Bishop Mukasa.

I, Johnson Ssengendo and my dear wife Roy, after our marriage, the Serunjogi’s invited us for marriage briefing and counseling and we had a good time with them. I and my wife send our sincere condolences to the family and friends as well as the in - laws, the Mityana District Chairperson Mr Mugisha Patrick Mityana, Kabaka’s representative Singo (County) Mukwenda, the Bishop of Mityana Anglican Diocese The Rt. Rev. Bishop James Bukomeko Ssalongo and all Retired Bishops of Mityana for the loss of a strong Christian in the Diocese who has been knowledgeable and had working. 

My  his soul Rest In Peace.

Till we meet again.
