Updated - Paddy Bitama has been an icon to the comedy industry. Colleagues and fans at large who have been rubbing shoulders with him are still in shock following his death last Saturday. In line with that and the desire to recognize his achievement, his body was taken to National Theater on Sunday night for public viewing.

Several stars have contributed adequately to ensure that Paddy is given a befitting burial that is yet to take place once the paternity wrangle is sorted. Below is the breakdown of the contributions in dollars:

Dr. Kizza Besigye - Over $12,000 (He's been supporting the fallen comedian from the time he fell sick).

Jose Chameleone - $200
Ronald Mayinja - $200
Mesach Semakula - $80

Ragga Dee - $40
Rema- $40
Comedian Phillip Luswata - $40

Fred Sebatta - $40
Grace Sekamatte - $40
Rebeca Jingo - $40

The full list of those who contributed in Ugx is right below. However, some of the mourners were putting fake 50,000/- notes claiming that they have contributed 10k and in the process taking out 40,000/-.
