-: On Sat, Dec 29th last year 2018, during the Saniaga Welfare AGM at Chavogere S.A church, first for my meeting him, he had finished reading a financial report, and if in admonition to the young or peering the near future, he had said how he wished the young were active in Saniaga activities. He saw himself worthy taking the back sit and his treasurer position held by a fast runner. Now he rests. It should not be like time old associations where death punctured Saniaga dream. 

- Guga, we shall take it from where you left. RIP.
