Few days back she was rushed to Nsambya Hospital while in critical condition and apparently she is under medical treatment in a non disclosed place.

Today parliament has come out to speak out on the legislator’s health condition.

According to parliament Director of communications Chris Obore, Nambooze is out of danger except for the throat irritation that is giving her cough.

“The doctors have advised her to keep out of phone for some days and also avoid talking to people for some days. She is advised to stay away from stress. She has been advised not to receive many visitors as it will force her to talk a lot yet rest is recommended. She will make a statement after doctors have cleared her to resume public life,” Obore stated.
