“On behalf of the Teso community and the country at large, I hereby announce with deep sadness and pain the demise of our brother Hon ONAPITO EKOMOLOIT (RIP), a veteran journalist and former member of Parliament for AMURIA county…rest of the details will be communicated later,” he said.

For 17 years, Onapito  served as the Director of Legal and Corporate Affairs at Nile Breweries Limited (NBL). In 2023, he was appointed as the company’s board Chairperson.

He was hailed for boosting NBL’s corporate image during his reign.

Ekomoloit also served as a Lecturer at Makerere University, Member of Parliament for Amuria County in the 6th Parliament.

Last year, he launched his memoir titled  “Tears and Triumph.” The memoir recounts his inspirational rise to national fame of a young kid who was nurtured in an impoverished community in Teso, in Uganda’s North-Eastern region, overcoming many obstacles, such as the premature death of his mother, and his path of resilience and success.
