On Sunday, State Minister for ICT Godfrey Kabbyanga, said Baryomunsi is being treated for extreme fatigue but is out of danger.
“He was doing routine mobilization in his constituency, but later that day after several meetings with church leaders and youth, he was going to meet the priests at about 7am in the company of his PA when collapsed. They are carrying out investigations into his state but the immediate cause is fatigue”
