CHRISTINE Nachap, 40, the interim chairperson of the newly-created Amudat district in Karamoja, is dead.

Nachap was first admitted at Mbale Hospital, but was airlifted by a UPDF helicopter to Mulago Hospital on Friday evening when her condition deteriorated.

Nachap, who was also the woman LC5 councillor for Karita sub-county, had served as interim chairperson since June last year, when the district was carved out of Nakapiripirit district.

By press time, Linos Lotem, the NRM district chairperson, was on his way to Kampala to prepare for the burial. Nachap survived by three children aged 15, 12 and 8.
