However, according to neighbors, prior to her death, she had turned into a habitual drunkard. Besides, according to her ex-boyfriend, she had been on drugs while still at Makerere University.
“I don’t know if by the time of her death she had quit it,” Namamra’s ex, who preferred to speak to us on condition of anonymity said.
