Although the nature of his sickness is unknown, government officials said John Nasasira had been battling the ailment for some time.
The illness was responsible for his long absence from the political space for some good years now.

The source said John Nasasira was already in and out of the hospital in Uganda before the family considered his desire to be flown to Turkey.
