Leaders, including Kampala Capital City Lord Mayor Erias Lukwago, also visited the scene.

Police say they are still investigating the cause of the fire.

But preliminary findings indicate that the fire broke out a few minutes after midnight.

The most affected dormitories were in the Olupot B Block where learners in Primary Four, Five, Six and Seven reside.

While other pupils successfully escaped to safety, a one Matthew Amanya, aged 11 and in Primary Six, was deep in his sleep and was burnt to death.
