Tooro ejumikiirwe! Enkuba etutiire!
The passing of our King is a wound that cuts deep into our hearts. This evening, we lined the streets of Fort Portal with raw grief and sorrow, welcoming our King home one final time in a deeply solemn homecoming. #KingOyo
oh you’re “brutally honest” but are you ever honest about the good stuff? do you compliment people’s positive traits and behaviors? or do you only open your mouth or fix your fingers to be “honest” when you’ve got something negative on your mind

OPINION: Omukama Oyo Nyimba Rukidi IV knew his King.
My prayer is plain: that the Babiito elders proceed with the patience their office demands, that anyone tempted to press a claim remembers whose funeral this is #MonitorUpdates https://t.co/y61zZ0D0MX
I’m watching the Netflix documentary about Mica Miller… they keep showing snippets of John Paul’s sermons and I’m not really understanding how anyone was sitting there listening to him “preach”. #DeathofThePastorsWife
This hypocrisy is sickening!!
Why invoke Jesus’ name and pretend to be God fearing while standing comfortably beside a tyrant who tortures and kills people for fun? The very people you claim to care about!
Ask yourself what Jesus would say about standing with power while the weak are being oppressed by those in power.
If you’re just ignorant about what is happening in Uganda, then educate yourself. But if you know what is happening and you choose to endorse it because of the money, then your character and integrity is highly questionable.
Black lives cannot matter only when it is convenient.
Death always means a life taken, but life cut short means two: the one lived and the one still to come. The second loss is harder to digest especially cause a man who had already given so much, leaves no room for doubt about what he would have done with the years he was owed. 🕊️
One thing I’ve noticed about AI is a dumb person with access to AI is still less productive than a smart person with AI.
AI doesn’t eliminate the need to be intelligent and creative, if anything it amplifies the divide between the lazy and unproductive people and those who are resourceful.
Last month I lost a friend unexpectedly. His life was, in all likelihood, very different from the people you are used to encountering, but we had enough in common that we shared an unusual friendship for nine years.
It would mean a lot if you took a little time to read about him
After three weeks of careful and detailed carpentry wood work, Peter Picasso, has completed my 8 seater dining table made from mahogany timber.
I first learnt that Picasso, a university graduate with a degree in Graphics Design and Animation was a carpenter, after I found him with a chisel chopping and chipping on a huge tree trunk complete with its roots--and telling me that he was making a custom, bespoke chair for a client who wanted it for an eco lodge.
I stopped and listened to his story, how after graduating from university, he went back to what he told me was his first love--carpentry.
"I want to apply my design skills to shape and make wood products,"he told me in 2018.
" I have always wanted to be a carpenter, "he said while holding 'elanda'-- a plane, that instrument, tool used by carpenters to smoothen the rough surfaces of timber.
I then asked him to do for me a piece of art made from wood with words " KEEP HOPE ALIVE "inscribed on it.
He did an excellent job, that when I posted it on Facebook, my former school asked that he does for them a king size badge with the school motto: I SERVE inscribed on it.
Since then, Picasso got deeper into wood and is now a true star.
So when I wanted a dinning table, I visited him at his carpentry shade, eisharamara' opposite Kebba Express Hotel, along Entebbe Road, and specified what I wanted.
I showed sample photos and described the feel and touch I wanted. I wanted a product that is truly wooden, made from our hardwood, mahogany, not these plywood type that are weightless.
And over the last three weeks, I have been checking on him daily to see progress, and finally, we have the product that is ready.
Hand skills do not lie. Vocational & technical skills do not lie. I will take home a product I like, and he will go home with good money from the works of his hands.
