As Uganda and the world at large are still battling with COVID-19 pandemic, sad news coming in indicates that three-year-old son to tycoon Jack Pemba and ex-girlfriend Uwera Mutoni Jeanne has been diagnosed with colon cancer at Mayo Clinic in Bugolobi.

Coast Cuthbert Pemba has been down with sickness recently according to Pemba.

“It is  a shame it is him not me because I have already live my life to full lane so it was better for me to have that cancer not a three-year-old boy,” says Jack Pemba.

Sad of all, the tycoon wants to immediately fly his son to better health facilities abroad but the current lockdown makes it impossible.

“I want to immediately fly him out but the world is on a lockdown,” says Pemba.

Colon cancer is a type of cancer that begins in the large intestine (colon). The colon is the final part of the digestive tract.

Colon cancer typically affects older adults, though it can happen at any age. It usually begins as small, noncancerous (benign) clumps of cells called polyps that form on the inside of the colon. We wish Jeanne a speedy recovery.
