Sources close to the Speaker’s office dismissed claims that he was battling Covid-19 and talked of minor stomach complications, however our sources at Entebbe Airport claim they saw him flying out to U.K.

The Parliament dismissed a report that Mr Oulanyah was seriously ill and that plans were underway to fly him out of the country for treatment.

Mr Chris Obore, the Parliament’s communications director, on Tuesday explained that Mr Oulanyah took time off to be with his family after a hectic schedule on the campaign trail.

However, a source at Entebbe airport claimed to have seen a person who resembled Mr Oulanyah lying in an ambulance on Tuesday evening awaiting clearance to leave the country.

According to the source, the immigration VIP staff cleared his documents while he remained in the ambulance and that he was with “a dark-skinned lady” who handled the process. 

“The lady opened the ambulance door to pick documents from the bag and we saw some dark-skinned person of Oulanyah’s size lying inside,” the Monitor source said.
