According to reports, fallen socialite and former leader of the Rich Gang, Ivan Ssemwanga’s burial will be filled with lots of burlesque displays of wealth. He lived large and will be accorded an equally befitting send-off.

His final journey takes off as his body arrives on Sunday afternoon. At the moment, his friends and colleagues in South Africa are holding a vigil at his residences in South Africa and Munyonyo. He will be buried on Tuesday next week at his ancestral home in Kayunga district. The home is already being given a face-lift.

Ivan Ssemwanga passed on yesterday morning after suffering a stroke and spending 11 days on life support at the Steve Biko Academy Hospital in Pretoria South, Africa. RIP.
