Kampala Lord Mayor Erias Lukwago has finally returned home after spending days getting treatment at Kenya’s Nairobi Hospital.
Lukwago had flown to Nairobi days after collapsing during Archbishop Cyprian Kizito Lwanga’s requiem mass at Lubaga Cathedral in Kampala.
His doctors would later advise him to have some rest.
But the Lord Mayor later complained of persistent chest and abdominal pain.
While in Nairobi, some people claimed Lukwago was dead.

“Needless to say, your wonderful messages of hope, empathy and prayers lifted my spirit several folds. Asante sana.”
