MAXIMUM RESPECT::As we gathered at @watotochurch Bweyogerere to celebrate KabakaAt33, 2 ladies smartly clad in gomesi were up on their platforms operating their cameras to provide a live feed for the video broadcast.
For all the 4 hours+ of the thanksgiving service, they stayed up on their feet clad in Gomesi, running their cameras.
Maximum respect!
