Around the end of last year, I visited some political prisoners in one of the female prisons . During our conversation, they revealed that one of the inmates had been severely beaten while in handcuffs and later died. Her body, they said, was quietly taken away.
I have never stopped asking my self these questions: Where was her body taken? Was her family ever informed?
At the time, I couldn’t share this story publicly for fear that the inmates who spoke to me would face retaliation. I only confided in @AAgather, but there was little we could do.
This incident reminded me of a man I met in Luzira during the March to Parliament protests. He told me he had spent 27 years in prison and that many inmates die unnoticed. With no media access inside prisons, such cases often go unreported, allowing the system to quietly get away with the loss of lives.
So the question is; who holds prisons in Uganda accountable?

There will be times when it feels like God has forgotten about you. If you judge your life by where you are right now, you’ll get discouraged. What you can’t see is what’s coming. You have to endure some things, looking forward to the joy that’s on the way.
Imagine watching a movie where the main character sat in their room on their phone all day begging. It would suck, right?
So be the main character in your life and be the best at it.
No job is worth your mental health, but before you quit, ensure that your state of joblessness, possible lack of food, fights with the landlord, public ridicule, etc, are not worse. Life is hard that sometimes you just have to fight thru your dark hours, or it may get darker

When you get money (big money) abruptly or start to get money consistently, before you think of investing and spending it on anything,
The first thing you should spend on is working on your hair, facial and skin.
Spend on your body to look good first. That is a gate to more opportunities. And smell well too.
You might think of buying clothes and shoes and gadgets etc, but the skin of a "from broke" person always tells it.
Obwaavu bulabikira ku skin yo (poverty is visible on your skin and facial looks) however much you try to hide it.
Looking good will be a good base to get more money and many opportunities will come your way. You lose opportunities by looking weird.
I am not yet on dress code. I am still on your skin. Work on your facial and body skin and hair first.
Then go and buy some good clothes.
But a good body (skinwise) can even make emivumba look good on you.
