Mukono Municipality Member of Parliament, MP Betty Nambooze Bakireke returned back to Uganda after acquiring specialised medical treatment from United States of America.

The opposition National Unity Platform, NUP Party member returned back home for the very first time walking ably without the assistance of crutches after spending nearly 6months in America acquiring specialized treatment as a result of the injuries she got way back in 2017 in the togikwatako fracas in Parliament.

The then smiling MP was seen with her spouse clearing their luggage at Entebbe Airport as they returned home firmly walking minus support of a walking stick, a clear indication that she was fine then.

Speaking to the media at her home in Mukono Municipality, "Madam Teacher" vowed to kick start her official duties with the mobilization of fellow opposition MPs to go and back up Hon Francis Zaake as he appears before the Rules committee of Parliament because the matter he was raising about the abductions of Ugandans affects all people country wide.

Before being flown to America, Nambooze was hospitalized after she slid and fell on the stairs at her home, sustaining injuries.

The MP had been nursing back and chest pains for a while as in 2018, she went to India for treatment, and since then she has been walking on crutches.
