According to a tweet by Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu, the NUP Party President, Wameli died today in the United States of America where he was taken last year to seek specialized medical attention.

In 2021, Wameli was diagnosed with stage four cancer by doctors at Boston Medical Center in Massachusetts in the United States of America.

Wameli, who was a Pastor at Ebenezer Christian Fellowship in Kanyanya rose to the limelight in 2017 when he represented the suspects accused of murdering former Police Spokesperson Andrew Felix Kaweesi, his bodyguard Kenneth Erau and driver, Godfrey Mambewa.

He was also the legal representative of Jamilu Mukulu, the alleged head of the rebel Allied Democratic Forces-ADF and former presidential candidates retired Lt. General Henry Tumukunde and Kyagulanyi.
