A Makerere University who died after sitting an examination paper on Tuesday was buried at her home in Kalungu district amidst tears and grief.

Joanita Nakalembe, an Education Student and resident at Garden Courts Hostel-Kikoni, is said to have complained about feeling unwell after sitting a Psychology exam on Tuesday (June 06) before she started vomiting and bleeding from the mouth.

Nakalembe was then rushed to Makerere University Hospital but her condition worsened and arrangements were made to transfer her to Mulago.

It is while on the way to Mulago that she collapsed and breathed her last.

On Thursday, her classmates shed tears while others fainted as Nakalembe’s body was lowered into the grave.
