Before becoming one of Uganda’s most recognizable female musicians, Sheilah Nvannungi built a strong presence in the media industry as a radio and television presenter. She worked with CBS FM, Bukedde FM, and Bukedde TV, where her engaging personality and connection with audiences made her a popular broadcaster. She also showcased her acting talent in the renowned Diamonds Ensemble drama series.

Born in 1982, Sheilah Nvannungi also known as Princess Sheila Nvannungi or Sheila Cinderella Nvannungi is a princess of the Buganda Kingdom, musician, actress, and media personality. She rose to national fame in the early 2000s through her music career, releasing hit songs such as Obwomu Buluma, Doctor, Eriiso, Omutima Gw’Omukyala, Bifekeera, and Nze Mukyalawo.

Her powerful vocals and strong cultural identity earned her widespread recognition, including the Pearl of Africa Music (PAM) Award for Female Artist of the Year in 2004.

While music brought her national acclaim, Nvannungi successfully balanced her singing career with broadcasting and acting. In recent years, she has focused more on her spiritual journey and family life, stepping away from mainstream secular music while remaining a respected figure in Uganda’s entertainment industry.

Before becoming one of Uganda’s most celebrated musicians, Juliana Kanyomozi took a bold chance that changed her life. Fresh out of high school and with no radio experience, she walked into Capital FM in 2001, asked for a job, passed a voice test, and was hired on the spot.

Born on November 27, 1980, in Kampala and hailing from Fort Portal in the Toro Kingdom, Juliana quickly became one of Capital FM’s most popular presenters. She started reading weekend news before hosting major shows such as the Mid-Morning Show, Late Date, and the Evening Drive alongside Gaetano Kagwa. Her distinctive voice and warm personality made her a household name during her six years at the station.

At the same time, her music career was taking off. She first gained recognition in the late 1990s as part of the duo I-Jay with Iryn Namubiru before launching a successful solo career with hits such as “Mama Mbire” featuring Bobi Wine and “Kibaluma.”

As her music career grew, balancing radio and music became increasingly difficult. Faced with an ultimatum from her employer, Juliana chose music over a secure salary and benefits—a decision that transformed her into one of Uganda’s most successful and award-winning female artists.

In 2017, Jacob Marksons Oboth-Oboth rose to national prominence as Chairperson of Parliament’s Legal and Parliamentary Affairs Committee when he spearheaded the committee’s endorsement of the Constitutional Amendment Bill that removed the presidential age limit under Article 102(b). The controversial amendment enabled President Yoweri Museveni to seek office beyond age 75 and triggered widespread debate and protests. Before his election as Speaker of the 12th Parliament in 2026, Oboth-Oboth served as MP for West Budama South and later West Budama Central from 2011. He also chaired several influential parliamentary committees, earning recognition for his expertise in legislative procedure, constitutional affairs, governance, and parliamentary oversight.

On 27 September 2017, Betty Nambooze was brutally assaulted during chaotic scenes in Parliament as security personnel moved to quell opposition protests against the proposed removal of the presidential age limit under Article 102(b) of the Constitution.

As Mukono Municipality MP and a leading figure in the “Togikwatako” (“Don’t Touch the Constitution”) campaign, Nambooze had been at the forefront of efforts to block the amendment.

She sustained serious injuries, including a broken back, which required prolonged medical treatment and resulted in lasting health complications.

Despite fierce resistance from opposition lawmakers and widespread public criticism, Parliament passed the amendment in December 2017.
