Kampala Lord Mayor Erias Lukwago has been re-admitted to Nairobi Hospital days after he collapsed during a requiem mass for the late Kampala Archbishop Cyprian Kizito Lwanga. 

Lukwago’s deputy, Doreen Nyanjura said on Sunday the Lord Mayor was undergoing various tests and that his situation was stable. 

Nyanjura said Lukwago had had “a recurring dizziness, persistent abdominal discomfort and severe chest pain despite attending several medical facilities in Kampala”. 

“… the Lord Mayor was referred to Nairobi Hospital for further management. Consequently, he travelled to Nairobi earlier this week, arrived safely and was checked into Nairobi Hospital,” Nyanjura said. 

“I spoke to the Lord Mayor today morning, he is stable and undergoing numerous tests. The office of the Lord Mayor appreciates your continued prayers and well wishes,” she added. 

Sometime last year, Lukwago was admitted to Nairobi hospital after test results indicated that he had acute anaphylaxis, an allergic reaction to some foods, insects, stings and medicine.
