Museveni with the couple at the ceremony
The lawmaker on Saturday married Betty Amongi, also a legislator from
Northern Uganda and chairperson, Uganda Parliamentary Women Association
(UWOPA) in a traditional ceremony held in Minakulu sub-county, Oyam
District.
Both lawmakers are members of the opposition party Uganda People’s Congress (UPC) that was founded by Akena’s father.
Uganda’s President Yoweri Museveni who is said to be a close friend
of the couple was the chief guest at the ceremony that was also attended
by ex convict Chris Rwakasisi, who used to be one of former President
Milton Obote’s right hand men and a friend to Miria, Akena’s mother.
