Kitagata hot springs, a once treasured tourist attraction faces extinction and in three years it will be no more.

The hot springs remind the residents and Ugandans as a whole of golden days when hundreds of local and international tourists flocked the area to catch a glimpse of "natural boiling water" and take a bathe.

The springs according, to residents had natural healing power and thus patients with body infections would swim through the waters every morning and evening while others prepared tea, porridge and boiled eggs for breakfast using same water.

The springs had sections: warm for bathing and hot for making tea. All this no more!

The former crystal clear waters of Kitagata have since turned into crude oil like because it is clogged and no longer flashes to the nearby swamp.

The blockade according to residents happened following massive floods from the nearby river stream Sebanga.

"The floods almost covered the entire springs and you could hardly access the water," said a resident.

The residents blame government for neglecting this treasured resource and thus falling into the hands of needy local communities, that can do nothing to revamp the springs apart from watching it die away.
