Stephen Atubiga Hospitalized After A Car Accident
Former flagbearer hopeful of the opposition National Democratic Congress, Stephen Atubiga, has been hospitalized after suffering a knee injury in a car accident.
In a Facebook post shared on January 9, 2021, Atubiga, who has broken away from the NDC, asked his followers to pray for him.
“Guys, please pray for me; I was involved in an accident this evening. And got a knee injury. I am hoping to get back on my feet soon,” he posted.
Two days after, the former NDC communicator shared a post indicating he had been scheduled to go through surgery while appreciating his friends and loved ones for supporting him in prayers.
“I sincerely appreciate all your love and prayers. I am also grateful to all those who have visited. It looks like the village boy is not going home anytime soon. Especially as I am being prepared for surgery. Please help me also thank the orthopaedic Doctors and all the nurses in the hospital. You never know the importance of your legs until you can’t move with them,” he wrote on January 11, 2021.
In his latest post made on Wednesday, January 12, 2021, the founder of the National Liberation Party attributed his predicament to ‘political spiritual attacks.’
He detailed how he has over the years survived several of such attacks, including attempts on his life through food poisoning orchestrated by his best friend, who he alleges wants to take his political party from him.
