Dr. Martin Bukama, now The Late, a medical practitioner at Mulago National Referral Hospital took his own life. The former student of Medicine and Surgery at the Makerere University College Of Health Sciences, left his friends and family in shock and indelible pain.
The cause of his decision to commit suicide is not known as of press-time, but at least the announcement of doing it was done on his Facebook account. It all started with a post on the micro-blogging site – that looked like a usual meme!
“The face u make when u finally realize that your life is all about #catching thieves mode.” He captioned a photo of his; with an agrarian background. Two days later posted another,
“The excitement u have when u finally discover that u are filthy rich.” This had two photos, with opulent smiles.
However, signs that things were really not okay showed on October 31st at midnight, when he posted a rather sad update,
“This goes out to all of you ALL OVER THE WORLD who have stolen ANYTHING OF MINE or are benefitting from it illegally be fair to yourself and return it all to me.”
At exactly 8pm, he posted for the last time before his body was discovered,
“All along, all these many years it has NEVER been my fault!!!!!…now I can die in peace…” The medic concluded.
This invited pleas from friends and family for him not to do anything bad to himself – on the same post, but a response was of no avail.
May the deceased’s soul rest in eternal peace.
