Whereas other Northern Uganda artistes arrived safely at the venue where the Northern Uganda Entertainment Awards (NUEA) took place, Bosmic Otim who is one of the most celebrated artistes in the Northern Uganda region, didn’t make it following an involvement in a nasty car accident as he was on his way to Lira Hotel where the awarding ceremony was held last weekend.

These being the first ever entertainment awards in the whole Northern region of Uganda, Bosmic was too ecstatic and he couldn’t wait for that day but he unfortunately, he didn’t make it through. “I actually slept in Pader (District) on Friday morning, I started my journey back to Gulu so that I can connect to Lira district for the awards.
I was being driven in my car and we were kind of speeding, a child out the blue crossed the road, we were almost knocking down the child but the driver decided to save his life, so when we saved the child’s life, the vehicle left the road and hit a very big tree, at Pajule- Lapul road in Pader.
