Cross-breeding: Todwong marries daughter of NRA revolutionary

By Wod Omoro

Kampala – The ruling National Resistance Movement (NRM) Secretary General Richard Todwong was on Sarturday introduced to the family of Anne Ruyondo, a daughter of the late revolutionary Col Patrick Lumumba.

The introduction ceremony termed culturally as the Kugamba Obugenyi happened in Bugolobi at the home of Ruyondo’s paternal uncle, Kwame Ruyondo.

The function precedes a formal wedding, which will take place at a later date during the course of this year.

Todwong and Anne Ruyondo have been dating in the background. It is believed the NRM Secretary General was behind her when she contested as an independent candidate for the Kazo Woman Member of Parliament seat.

Todwong has been married to Barbara Ayesiimire who refers to him as her best friend. The two have three children together.
