I did not know what to exactly expect when I was booking an attendance slot for the Transformers Conference 2015. I first heard of the Transformers Conference in 2014 after the inaugural one was held. Paul Kisakye who had attended shared a word about it. It was then that I also learnt of the Worship Harvest Ministries with church branches at Naalya and KatiKati but … Continue reading Transformed at the Transformers Conference 2015
Don’t worry, we are there Continue reading DEAR UGANDAN WRITERS, HAS TOTAL DECAY ABSORBED ALL OUR SENSES OF SATIRE?

It’s been long since I last put a word here. The challenge of writing for others. But I found this story so personal that I couldn’t trade it anywhere but here. It was on Wednesday 5th August 2015, when together with my work colleague Robert Lwanga met this busy CEO on appointment on what turned out to be a very cold morning following a heavy … Continue reading Humbled By Amos Wekesa
When osbert Mwijukye called me to join him at Kyambogo University for the one day tech conference I was a little skeptical of what to expect. Not being a developer myself, I thought it not right to attend save for the cause of having to write this. But because this is the field I want to launch into, I did. The event began at … Continue reading Live a meaningful life to others

I am reliably told that in those days (90s and before) people used to carry their friends home, for a visit. But things have changed and we’ve moved on. Today, we meet in … Continue reading Restaurant Generation

Dickson Mushabe is to present next about his journey as the CEO of Hostalite. We rest the works of the cup and its saucer to warm up the red-fold of the auditorium chairs. “I used to … Continue reading My Life, My Story – The Expereince of Dickson Mushabe
He invited me. The talk had been long and we had shot into the hours of the Sunday morning. My roommate, Justus, is not one of those people that stay out for long. Usually by 2100 hours, he is back indoors. But that is not the case with Saturdays. As dusk walks in, he is at the hostel putting a few things together for what … Continue reading 15 YEARS DOWN THE ROAD, PRIME TIME IS YOUNGER THAN HER AGE
Don’t be alone in that secluded place. Your mind will be stolen and your treasury hacked into. You cannot trust all that passes, all the sights that the eye catches. May be these you may but you cannot trace all the thoughts your mind’s birthed. You are special because you can think independently; you’re not special because you belong to a club. No, you will … Continue reading If you could think of this
DOES TV IN UGANDA HAVE AN IDENTITY? On the 24th January, the Lantern Meet of Poets wound up their theatrical production whose theme was “What shall we name this child?” The poetry production explored the topic of Ugandan Identity especially the question of “what makes one Ugandan?” The following day I sat back to catch up with what was and is trending on TV. And … Continue reading
