The opposition National Unity Platform (NUP) party lead lawyer, Anthony Wameli is bedridden with stage four cancer.
Wameli who has not been well in the last couple of months, is reportedly admitted at Boston Medical Centre in Boston, USA.
Wameli told a local Ugandan news agency that after the June admission, thorough biopsies were done but it is only recently when they confirmed that he had stage four cancer.
Stage 4 cancer is sometimes referred to as metastatic cancer, because it often means the cancer has spread from its origin to distant parts of the body. This stage may be diagnosed years after the initial cancer diagnosis and/or after the primary cancer has been treated or removed.
A Pastor at Ebenezer Christian Fellowship in Kanyanya, Wameli cut his teeth on the legal World in 2017 when he represented the suspects accused of murdering former Police Spokesperson Andrew Felix Kaweesi, his bodyguard Kenneth Erau and driver, Godfrey Mambewa.
Wameli is also the legal representative of Jamilu Mukulu, the alleged head of the rebel Allied Democratic Forces-ADF and former presidential candidates retired Lt. General Henry Tumukunde and Robert Kyagulanyi.
