In the bushy hamlet of Kyabakadde, 31 kilometres north-east of Kampala, an eerie silence welcomes visitors.
Dirges and gospel songs blare on two gigantic speakers, installed a metre-high and facing one another, in the quadrangle, partially circumscribed by three houses.
Men and women clustered in small groups, some with hands clasped across the chests, could be spotted discussing in subdued voices.
Some were seated. Many stood erect, casting glances over security personnel deployed both inside and outside the residence.

Archbishop Lwanga was found dead on Saturday morning in his house.
A postmortem report yesterday revealed that he succumbed to a heart attack caused by a blood clot.
Before his death, Dr Lwanga often led prayers at the cathedral, and it is probably why mourners easily find it as the most suitable place to continue showing their last respects to the deceased.
Besides, the cathedral is located near the deceased’s official residence, and according to the tentative programme, he will be buried at the place of worship.
