Arthur’s breaking point came at a time he posted “Hi D You will always ask yourself if you had sent me a more meaningful text. These are your last words to me. Goodbye D.”

He had posted a number of Posts on facebook and got alot of counselling from friends but they all yielded nothing.

This was one of the posts from Nagawa Shamin recalling the posts of Arthur in 2017

“One day in 2017, I opened my Facebook account and landed to post from Basalirwa Arthur. I actually took it seriously entered his inbox sent him a video which he enjoyed so much, yesterday is a post from some man I never took it seriously. Today as I open my Facebook account the only first to see was rest in peace for the same man.
ALWAYS PAY ATTENTION TO PEOPLE WHEN THEY TRY TO REACH OUT TO YOU. DEPRESSION IS REAL AND IT KILLS”

May his Soul Rest In Eternal Peace
