President Museveni was the first to rush to Nakasero Hospital on Friday Morning to check on his longtime political ally.
Mr.Museveni arrived at the Hospital at 11:40am on Thursday. His convoy kept outside the hospital while only two of his vehicles entered the hospital gate.
He was immediately taken to where the speaker was where he spent about 15mins in the room.
According to the deputy presidential press secretary Lindah Nabusayi, the president was concerned about Kadaga’s condition.
Many people including MPs later on thronged the hospital to check on the 64 year old law maker, but were unable to see her as entry to her private room was restricted.
