The Chairperson of the Parliamentary Budget Committee Patrick Isiagi has tasked the State Minister for Finance in-charge of General Duties, Henry Musasizi to give the status of the Health Center where the Minister for Information Communication Technology (ICT) and National Guidance, , Dr. Chris Baryomunsi was taken for first aid after fainting.
Dr Baryomunsi was on Saturday night airlifted to Kampala for medical attention after reportedly fainting in Kanungu District in western Uganda.
Dr Baryomunsi who doubles as Kinkiizi East Member of Parliament is said to have fainted at around 6pm while on his way from Ruhija in Muramba parish, Rutenga Sub County where he donated iron sheets to Church of Uganda’s Kyakikyere church.
The Minister was on his way rushing to Kambuga Sub County where he was set to preside over another function but after fainting, he was rushed to Kambuga hospital for treatment where medics led by one only identified as Dr Adas examined and reportedly found him hypertensive and later at around 10:30pm, he was airlifted to Kampala for specialized treatment.
The concern came after the circulation of media posts showing that Kambuga hospital was in a sorry state and looked more like a deserted facility.
In reply, Musazizi agreed that the health facility is not in the best state which calls for rehabilitation and more support from the Government.
