After exchanging vows, President Museveni took a moment to praise his wife, Mama Janet, by acknowledging her vital role in nurturing their family.

In his speech, he extended gratitude for her dedication to raising their children single-handedly while he was away, fighting for Uganda's liberation.

He also encouraged Ugandans to prioritise their families in order to guarantee the continuity of humanity, unlike other worldly possessions.
