Ouma was pronounced dead on arrival at a Busia hospital, with doctors claiming that he died from dehydration that was caused by the alcohol he had ingested.

“My son had a drinking problem. His wife had even left him because of his addiction to alcohol,” said Nabwire.

The competition was organized by one of the wealthy drinkers at the Matayos den, who promised unlimited drinks to the winner.
Ouma and his two friends accepted the “philanthropist’s” challenge.
After downing three glasses in a matter of seconds, and, consequently, beating his cronies in the contest, Ouma collapsed and died.
His body was taken to Sega Mission Hospital Morgue. Ouma is survived by a widow and three children.
