The death of controversial Islam leader Sheik Nuhu Muzaata caught many Ugandans off guard and it is by no surprise that hundreds of people from all walks of life no mater which religion they believe poured in large numbers just to witness his final send off.

But just before his demise on Friday last week the motor mouthed cleric had spent over a month battling a yet to be identified disease at Kampala International Hospital.
And while Muzaata’s passing on at the fairly developed facility sent shock waves across the entire nation it is his accumulated medical bills that sent his loved ones to the coolers just to reflect on the cost of falling sick in Uganda.

To be it in perspective a trusted source on ground revealed to us that despite spending only 30 days in Hospital the No nonsense man of God accrued an astronomic 75 Millions in medical expenses.
What is more ironical about this situation is that even after spending such a huge chunk of monies one can’t get guaranteed of having a life. The Lesson learnt from this is we need to jealously keep our selves from situations that can potentially expose us to disease.
