What do you believe is the single most important factor driving up the cost of living in Nigeria?

The high profile homicide case in which five people are charged in connection with the death of Kampala businessman Henry Katanga resumed Tuesday with the defense lawyer questioning the step sister of the deceased about the suicide history in the family.

During cross-examination, Mr Jet Tumwebaze put it to Ms Naume Nyagweso that because one of the closest family members allegedly died by suicide, it was likely that her younger brother, Henry, shot himself on that fateful morning of November 2, 2023.

"There is a person you confided in that you fear that your brother (Henry Katanga) was suicidal just like your other brother, Ntomi," Mr Tumwebaze said during cross examination before Justice Isaac Muwata of the High Court in Kampala.

He added: "I want to put to you that you have a history of suicide in your family and your brother, Katanga's suicide did not surprise you."

But in response, Ms Nyagweso, who is the ninth prosecution witness dismissed the lawyer's claims.
