What it feels like to work in a mortuary

Working among the dead is what Brian Baluku does for a living. For seven years Baluku has received, documented, and stored the bodies of patients who have died in Mubende and Kiruddu hospitals. NTV's Benjamin Jumbe spent the day at Baluku's office. We warn you that some of you may find the images in this story disturbing. #NTVNews #NTVTonight #NTVWeekendEdition

To me you are a hero. Not everyone can stand for that. But you are devoted to help humankind very well in time of need.

Well done Morticisn Brian. I wish U could do same task out of the willingness to care for the dead. I am above 45yrs old now. I respect your efforts

[@user-hf6hj4cj9x]

[@winnienakabuubi9341]

The 6 fridges seem few for a referral hospital that even one body is on lying on the stretcher

[@achayobrenda3431]

May God bless all workers in the world

Most reporters in Africa have nothing to do.

[@NAKISUYIREBECCA]

🤭🤭🤭 I fear dead bodies yet even me I will be one one day.

[@queenbee1588]

I fear the whole mortuary environment

[@ayesigajoseph5300]

Not only you dear 😢😢

[@ronaldbahingire7979]

Let me tell you, even 😅if they are willing to offer me a salary of 50 million per month to work in a mortuary I will still decline that offer coz of the fear of dead bodies. Just know Baluku is a very brave person

[@queenbee1588]

@@ronaldbahingire7979 for me it's traumatising seeing the looks on the faces of the bereaved families, imagine a mother bringing the body of her 8 year old son or daughter, a teenage girl accompanying the body of her sister or mother .....
