The renown vocal Muslim cleric breathed his last at International Hospital Kampala (IHK) where he had been admitted for over two weeks. Sheik Muzaata will be buried today December 5, in Kigoowa village along Bombo Road.
Here are some of the facts you didn't know about Sheikh Muzaata:
1.Sheikh Nuhu Muzaata Batte was born in the 1950s, to the late Adam Muzaata in Bwaise, Lufula Zone. Sheikh Adam was a well known Islamic religious healer. Hue used the Holy Quran to treat the sick.
2.Muzaata's father died in 1990 and was buried in Kazo, a Kampala suburb next to Bwaise. But later on, Muzaata and other family members decided to exhume and transferred their father's remains to Kigogwa, along Bombo road.
3.It's said, the late Kamadi Muzaata, Sheikh Muzaata's grandfather originated from Tanzania. He migrated to Uganda in the early 1800 and settled in Buganda region, during Buganda King Ssekabaka Ssuuna II's reign (1830 until 1856). Kamadi Muzaata was a native doctor. He locally treated many people including one of Kabaka Ssuuna's wives named Muganzirwazza. Muganzirwazza was the mother of Ssekabaka Mwanga II. But later on, Kamadi Muzaata shifted to Mbale where Nuhu Muzaata's father was born.
4.But after some time, Muganzirwazza decided to offer Kamadi Muzaata a piece of land in Bwaise, such that her native doctor stays near her, and in case of any health need, he can attend to her quickly. It's said Kamadi Muzaata accepted the request and shifted to Bwaise, where he stayed until he breathed his last. His son Adam Muzaata turned his successor, and then in the 1950s, he produced Sheikh Nuhu Muzaata Batte.
