A 21-year-old girl Senior Four student at Olila High School in Soroti City, Eastern Uganda, has given birth to a bouncing baby girl after bravely sitting for her first UNEB exam paper despite experiencing labour pains.

Earlier on, this website published  a story of the same girl sitting in her first paper while in labour pain before she delivered.

The student, who was eight months and three weeks pregnant, wrote her exam before being rushed to Princes Diana hospital in Soroti City West for delivery.

The Head Teacher of Olila High school, Joseph Opio said the school picked Angela from Princess Diana Health Centre IV and brought her to write for her first Geography paper in the morning and she did it while enduring labour pains.

“After the first paper she was returned back to the health facility where she delivered normally without any health complications and she was returned back to do the afternoon paper,”,Opio said.

The student known as Alupo Angella, a resident of Acowa Sub County  in Kapelebyong District delivered at 12pm on 13th October 2025 at Princes Diana Hospital Soroti. Alupo delivered her baby at 8 months and three weeks.

Mr Opio, added that the school had two girls who were missing during the Exams.

 “Efforts are underway to locate the other one so that she can come and sit for her exams but  so far our search hasn’t yielded any positive results”, the headteacher said.

Ms Joyce Aguti, the mother to Alupo said that she was called in the morning while she was in the garden that her daughter was in pain.

Alupo, says she started feeling the pains on Sunday at about 11pm and her neighbour helped her to the hospital.
