@wekesa_amos @ShidiUg @JRRwabwogo Many thanks for your response Mr. @wekesa_amos it means a lot to get your attention. What I actually mean, Uganda has finally gotten that one marathon recognized worldwide. Let's all focus on growing it rather than building competition. There's still many opportunities around it.

[Agaba Derrick @AgabaDerrick9]

@ShidiUg @wekesa_amos @JRRwabwogo My opinion: I think we are having so much duplication of ideas that marathons will lose meaning. We got gulu city mara. Mbarara mara. Kabaka mara. Mk birthday mara. and many others not mentioned. Weare all competing for the same marketing. Why not start another raw idea?

@KagutaMuseveni Many thanks, sabalwanyi, the likes of @AndrewMwenda, always spearheading propaganda. Those good English speaking gentlemen..... referring to even older people that grand kids

@WelBeast @KarungiRach This Arsenal team has always messed up my life. From season to season, I look up to match days, watch Sky Sports prematch analysis, watch the game, and afterward go to Sky Sports for post-match analysis. @Grok do the needful

@KalakiBrian @mkainerugaba Why don't we sign a petition to request @mkainerugaba to meet Dr. Lawrence Mulindwa to save our beautiful game from vultures at FUFA

@mkainerugaba @JingoVj1 Jambo Afande! After " operation Ufisadi" is done, I pray and suggest that we use the monies recovered to build an asset for the country. We can build a road and name it corruption recovery road 1, then 2, and so on.

@benmwine I was Micah for the whole of my primary school. My enthusiasm stemmed from playing football at school, ohh I loved school.

[Lady B - IYALODE OF X @mobola_ade]

My name is Zainab. I’m 27 years old. An SS.

That is, I live with sickle cell disease.
My parents are both AS.

Oh, they They knew.
They were told.
They still married.

They said God approved it. They said love would be enough. They said faith would cover the consequences.

I am the consequence.

I was diagnosed before I was two. My childhood memories are not playgrounds or cartoons,they are; hospitals, needles, and adults whispering when they thought I couldn’t hear.

In primary school, I missed classes so often that teachers stopped asking why. Some classmates thought I was pretending. Some thought I was cursed. I learned early how to smile while feeling different.

By secondary school, the pain episodes became more frequent. I would wake up excited for school and end the day on a hospital bed. I watched my mates grow normally while my life moved in pauses, school, hospital, recovery, repeat.

At 15, I lost my younger brother to sickle cell.
We were both SS.

That day changed me forever.

My parents broke down in front of me — crying, apologizing, saying “We followed faith. We didn’t think…”
But the damage had already been done.

Sometimes I forgive them.
Sometimes I resent them deeply.
Both feelings live in me.

In university, I tried to be normal. I joined sickle cell advocacy groups, volunteered with awareness organizations, spoke at events, encouraged parents to test their genotype. People call me strong. They call me a warrior.

What they don’t see is me crying alone at night after another silent pain episode.
They don’t see the fear that comes with planning a future in a body that doesn’t always cooperate.

And Relationships?
That’s another wound.

I’ve been loved… briefly.
The moment conversations turn serious about marriage, children, commitment….they leave. Some are honest. Some ghost me. Some promise forever and disappear quietly.

One man once said he would do anything for me. He talked about taking me abroad, better care, a life without fear. I believed him. For the first time, my heart rested.

Then one day, he stopped calling.

That heartbreak triggered one of the worst crises I’ve had as an adult. Not because of physical stress but because hope collapsed.

Now I’m older. The pain episodes come differently. Less dramatic, but more exhausting. My body recovers slower. My fears are heavier. I ask myself questions my parents never asked each other.

I am strong, yes.
But I am tired.

If you are AS and the person you love is AS, please love your unborn children enough to stop and think. Faith is not a license to ignore knowledge. I am a proof to that

I didn’t ask to be a lesson.
But if my life can prevent another child from being born into avoidable pain, then my voice matters.

That’s why I’m writing this to you. Because people listens to you and this story needs to be heard. I hope that your audience share this till it reaches those who are about to walk by faith and not by sight, Sickle Cell is real!.

Adeyinka, keep rescuing lives, I love how you raise awareness and say the truth unapologetically, those who do not like you are probably those who wish they could be you. Have you met you?. Oh,I see you Queen Ade💪🏻

The nasty road accident & airlifting of Gen. Sabiiti Mzee is terrible! Although he is a top ranking UPDF soldier, he has a huge heart for poor women. He created dialogue between women & police headquarters during rampant kidnaps & femicides. He is a good guy. I pray he survives.

@DenisDukeUG @GovUganda Highland areas like elgon are generally densely populated because of fertile soils and good weather for food and cash crops. Kasese and kabale are the same in the rwenzori and kigezi, respectively. A big part of mbarara is in the cattle corridor, not arable.

@OkelloDixon I am thinking, how about I buy the Kenyan tickets at the upcoming Afcon, since we are on Pamoja

[odonga Otto @OttoSam50178310]

I am looking for a boy between 7 -13 years preferably from a very poor background .
I want to raise up that child like mine .
I expect nothing in return but to change his world for the better .
The results will come in 15 years.
Keep politics out of this.
Any advise?

[Agaba Derrick @AgabaDerrick9]

@masindeonyango @GSB_Uganda #ASKDenisOnyango @masindeonyango Why are we seeing less of you in the goal at sundowns. Some of us follow the SA league because of you. 2ndly; Is it possible to reconsider your stand on cranes for the upcoming Afcon?
