On February 6, The Speaker of Parliament, Jacob Oulanyah was flown out of the country to the US for treatment aboard chattered Uganda Airlines Airbus A330-800neo.

He has been since admitted in Seattle in the United States of America for specialized treatment.

On Tuesday, Deputy Speaker Anita Among, Chief Justice Owiny-Dollo, and un identified brother of the Speaker travelled to the US to check on him.

Since he was admitted, some Ugandans have been speculating on his health while others claim he is dead.

Today, Democratic Party (DP) president, Norbert Mao who has been bashing NUP fanatics, revealed that the Speaker is very ill and needs serious prayers.

I’m with the CJ, the D/Speaker, the Health Minister & the Speaker’s brother in Seattle where the Speaker is hospitalized. A man who is very ill deserves our prayers. Above all let’s respect his privacy and that of his family. The D/Speaker will soon issue a statement. It is well!
