Congratulations President @ShemIsaac4
My Rotary journey after returning to Uganda is anchored in you.
Who would have thought that the friend who pulled me deeper into Rotary would one day become President and somehow end up with even more meetings than the rest of us?
Wishing you a phenomenal year ahead, my friend

The Rotary Club of Kampala over the weekend installed Shem Nnaggenda Nsubuga as Club President, taking over from Jackie Ayuya. The event also featured the inauguration of the 70th club board and the official launchpad for ‘777’, an ambitious strategic roadmap designed to guide the new board’s community-driven initiatives into the club’s next 30 years and toward its centennial anniversary. The strategy focuses on three core pillars which include; 70 New Quality Members, 70 New Projects and a $70,000 Fundraising Goal.

CGTN journalists, trainers test Sabastian Sawe’s world-record marathon pace
What happens when journalists and fitness pros try to keep up with a world-record marathon pace? We attempted to match Kenya’s Sebastian Sawe's record breaking pace. From gasps for air to bursts of adrenaline, every second counts as we chase a record-breaking rhythm. Watch the full challenge to see who survived and who crumbled. 🏃🏿♀️ ⏱ @hyatfitness

GREAT LAKES SAFARIS LTD
25 YRS TODAY
Yesterday the birthday wishes were overwhelming and at one point I just gave up but remained grateful for all messages.
GREAT LAKES SAFARIS started on the 23rd of April 2001, a day after my 28th birthday.
I had spent my earlier years accumulating field experience and like I have always said, first thing you look for is a skill.
If money lands in your hands and finds without skills, that will definitely be a lost cause.
They say money can’t keep company with a fool. A fool with his money part company easily so they say!
The third picture represents my 3rd job, i worked as a tour guide earning about 5k every day I worked.
The first job I worked as a cleaner and second job I was an office messenger and all provided different experiences. It didnt matter that I was a leader throughout school days.
God helped me put my lifestyle in check upto today. It doesn’t matter how much you earn, how much you save, how much you invest, a bad lifestyle will always take you down!
In a good month, I would guide for about 15 days and some months I had nothing and therefore always saved for the rain day.
My rent was ushs 5k in slum room, used about 2k for food a week, katogo of beans and Casava would cost ushs 200 then.
I couldn’t afford 3 meals a day even with 2 planting seasons Uganda has, none of my friends can tell you I ever complained, needa.
The 3rd represents our 3rd office on Sussie house Nsambya when things had improved a lot, the first office was a briefcase one, then under the stairs was second.
In the fourth picture, you can see why I hate suits, I work hard to earn a right to dress how I want. We were celebrating 10yrs of Great Lakes safaris at Serena.
You can only grow money given to you when you have enough skills in handling it and that’s why the Japanese say money accounts for only 15% when starting a business.
Some people say, oh people don’t tell us all the stories, yes, imagine me telling about my daily frustrations with business? Some of you get tired by reading about my travels when am looking for business.
Yet you don’t see the whole picture!
You don’t see the lonely times we face in hotel rooms, the scary flights we continue to take, the failed negotiations, the malice some times.
We can only give you some pointers but the business experiences are very personal and different different days, weeks, months etc. Our lives aren’t predictable at all.
Business is majorly about solving problems by providing solutions. Some days one works less, some days i have to put in 20hrs of work.
Others like Rwenzori marathon days, I don’t sleep for 40hrs same as our whole team.Out there people say the celebrations and a good job done. Thats what matters!
We thank God for the 25yrs in business and can’t wait to see what God has for us in the next 25yrs.
When Uganda’s Centenary Group moved to acquire and rebuild a struggling bank in Malawi in 2022/23, the first such expansion by a Ugandan bank, it marked a significant strategic shift. Two years on, the early results are beginning to show.
Centenary Bank Malawi’s 2025 performance offers a clear indication that this bold cross-border bet is starting to pay off. Under Managing Director CPA Godfrey Byekwaso, who has been part of the leadership team since 2023, the bank has moved from stabilisation to structured growth, supported by cost restructuring, balance sheet strengthening, and disciplined risk management.
This is not just a leadership story. It is also a story of institutional ambition, of a Ugandan bank extending its footprint, leveraging regional talent, and building a platform for long-term growth beyond its home market. The turnaround is still unfolding, but the direction is becoming clearer.
