Around 8:00PM, AK 47 went to the bar of his manager Jeff Kiwa, called Denjavu which is found in Kampala, where he started drinking with friends.
At around 10:PM, AK 47 was found lying on the floor of the bathrooms bleeding from the nose and with foam in his mouth.
It was said that he went unconscious and fainted.
He was taken to the nearest clinic for first aid but the clinic was unable to deal with the difficult situation and instead referred him to a bigger hospital.
They reached Nsambya Hospital and the doctors found it impossible to cure his complication.
He was announced dead five minutes after arriving in the hospital.
They informed the media and at around 11PM news had started circulating all over social media.
The nurses prepared his body and took it to the mortuary.
Different versions came from witnesses who were around the Dejavu bar that night.
According to one girl, AK 47 had a quarrel with his manager Jeff Kiwa over a laptop: AK 47 wanted to play his new song Ndi Mulokole (I am saved), a thing that Jeff Kiwa never wanted, claiming that the laptop had no battery.
After exchanging some words, AK 47 went to the bathroom; the bouncer was seen following AK 47 to the bathroom.
After a few minutes the bouncer of the bar was seen coming out of the bathroom and when they couldn't see AK 47 coming out, they decided to check there and they found him lying on the floor half dead; they believe that he was beaten and killed by the bouncer.
Others said that AK 47 left the bar and went outside to get in his car and go home.
However, he was seen with blood in his nose which they believe that he had been beaten by the bouncer before; then he went to the bathroom to clean himself of the blood.
Then the bouncer followed him there again and after the bouncer came out of the bathroom, when they checked in the bathroom after several minutes, they found AK 47 lying on the bathroom helpless.
Both witnesses believe that after entering the bathroom, he was followed by the bouncer, so it is believed that the bouncer was the one who killed him.
Many believe that the bouncer was working on the orders of someone above him.
Immediately after his death, some reports, came claiming that it is the ghost of Karamaji that strangled AK 47 to death, Karamaji is a boy who had died in 2012 and his death was related to the Mayanja Family since he burnt dead in the compound of AK 47's brother's house however, the claims were dismissed by the police since they had no source and authentication.

However, police dismissed the claims too saying that they are trying to alter and divert the investigations of the police on the real cause of AK 47's death.
