John Babirukamu, a leading figure in Uganda’s digital marketing industry, has died.

According to reports, Babirukamu jumped from a building in Kamwokya, Kampala, on Friday, May 31, 2024.

In a final message to his family, Babirukamu wrote, “I’m sorry for the trouble I’ve caused… I’ve tried my best, but now I feel empty.” He told his family he loved them and asked for their forgiveness, adding, “Please give my nieces and nephews a kiss from me. They were my last joy.”

Family members tried to reach Babirukamu, but his phone was off, and they couldn’t contact him.

Babirukamu’s death has shocked Uganda’s digital marketing community, where he was known for his creative ideas and successful work.
