Ssimbwa, the son of Prince David Ggolooba, the elder brother of Kabaka Ronald Mutebi died on Thursday at Nsambya hospital in Kampala.<\/p>\n

“He died of a stroke at Nsambya hospital this morning,” his close friend and old student of Nkumba Primary School, Mr Godfrey Ssekisonge told this reporter.<\/p>\n

A stroke occurs when the blood supply to part of your brain is interrupted or reduced, preventing brain tissue from getting oxygen and nutrients. It is considered as a medical emergency, and prompt treatment is crucial.<\/p>\n

Days after the accident which claimed the lives of more than 30 people near Mutima Beach on Lake Victoria, Prince Ssimbwa, a businessman and events organiser, on December 2, 2018 shared his harrowing testimony with a congregation at Victory Christian Centre, where he gave his life to Christ and became a born-again Christian.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
