President Yoweri Museveni honored the late media figure and sports leader Cedric Babu Ndilima. He called Babu a patriot who truly loved Uganda. Deputy Speaker Thomas Tayebwa read the president's speech at Rubaga Cathedral during Friday's memorial service. Museveni praised Babu as a sports star and future leader whose passion for serving his country made him special among his peers. The president said Uganda lost an amazing person from the sports world.

Museveni noted that Babu's talent would be remembered long after his death. He said Babu's skill at bringing people together and his interest in politics showed he would have become a great leader. The president believed Babu was a mobilizer and patriot who cared about leadership issues. He thanked Babu for his work at Uganda Broadcasting Corporation. The nation appreciated the wisdom Babu shared with people through his radio shows.

Museveni praised Babu's parents for raising him as a good citizen. He said fathers play important roles in keeping families strong and teaching children values. The president noted that Babu died during his best years when his family needed him most. He offered sympathy to the sports community, especially the Uganda Tennis Association, and to Babu's family and friends. Babu died from heart problems at Aga Khan Hospital in Nairobi, Kenya, and will be buried at his family home in Kamengo on Saturday.
