Masaka Bishop Emeritus John Baptist Kaggwa yesterday succumbed to COVID-19.

Bishop Kaggwa was pronounced dead on Wednesday evening by the diocesan communications director, Rev Fr Ronald Mayanja.

“It’s true the Bishop has gone to be with the Lord; he succumbed to Covid-19, which he has been battling for two months,” Fr Mayanja said.

John Baptist Kaggwa was born on 23 March 1943 at Bulenga, Busiro County, and went to  Lubaga Boys Primary School from 1952 until he completed Primary 6 in 1957. He then joined Kisubi Minor Seminary in 1958. Later he studied at Katigondo Major Seminary.

In May 1970, Kaggwa was ordained a priest in Rome. On 12 December 1971, he was ordained a priest, also in Rome, at the age of 28 years.

In December 1994 he was appointed coadjutor Bishop for Masaka and ordained a year later. Three years later in 1998, he succeeded Adrian Kivumbi Ddungu as the Bishop for Masaka.

On 6 July 2019, Bishop John Baptist Kaggwa was the principal consecrator of his successor Bishop Severus Jjumba.
