On Saturday 3rd Feb 2023, Makerere university 3nd year student identified as Wamomo Emma was found dead in a swimming pool at Mountain Inn in Mbale City.
Wamono Emma (deceased) who was pursuing Bachelor of electrical engineering at Makerere unversity was found laying dead under the swimming pool by hotel management.
How it started.....
Information on his death is so wanting, several narrations from eye witnesses claim he drowned in the pool, though Makerere University claims that the late was trying to save a child who was drowning.
According to our reporter, the deceased left Kampala for Mbale on Friday 2nd Feb 2023 for 2 weeks holiday.
On 4th of Feb 2023, upon reaching Mbale, him and his cousins decided to go for swimming at Mountain inn hotel located on majanga road, opposite cure Hospital.
The posh hotel belongs to Hon Nathan Nandala Mafabi, Member of parliament Budadiri West.
It is said that the cousins decided to go have a drink as Emma went for swimming at the premises swimming pool.
After a couple of good hours, the cousins started looking for Emma (deceased) but he wasn't spotted anywhere at the hotel premises.
They opted to notify the hotel management but unfortunately the managers of this place tended to ignore and told the little cousins that they are occupied with other duties at the hotel.
latter, in the evening the management together with the late's cousins discovered Emma's body laying helplessly under the swimming pool.
At this moment, there was no clear information whether the deceased knew how to swim because the pool had no attendant by the time of the accident.
Probably had the pool had an attendant, he or she would have given our report a clear picture on what exactly transpired.
Funny part of it:-
At around 5pm, the body was escalated from the pool without notification of police. It is also said that Mbale news reporters had been tipped off but unfortunately they were compromised by Hotel management.
The late is a son to Mr. Nakimesi Micheal, a national forestry officer in Mbale district who hails from Busano in Mbale district.
He will be buried on Monday 6th February 2023 in Bunambutye Village, Mbale district.
The Elgon sub region Police Spokesperson, ASP Rogers Taitika, says investigations are still ongoing to ascertain the actual cause of Wamono’s death.
Taitika confirmed that the initial postpone report rules out allegations that were spreading that the late was strangled and thrown in the pool adding that more samples have been taken to the government analytical laboratory for further investigations.
We tried reaching out to the hotel management about the incident but no one was ready to talk to our reporters.
