Kizza then allegedly slipped into the water and all efforts by his friends to rescue him were too late.

His dead body was later retrieved by police who were called to the scene and was deposited at the Lacor Hospital in Gulu.

It was after his death that one of his friends revealed that preparations were underway towards his marriage which is due to take place in August.
