From The Road - Journey to Kampala on a rainy day.

In Tororo in the morning driving around in search of fuel that has become scarce and expensive due to Iran and Trump war. It’s been either raining or drizzling all the way from Tororo to Kampala and hardly any sunshine, which was a blessing in the notorious Kampala traffic jam. The heat often causes me a lot of discomfort in the traffic jam, especially when I am using public transport, where one…

From The Road - National Conscience.

May be the efforts of a street preacher will tickle our conscience and we ponder what Solomon said, “‭Righteousness exalts a nation, but sin condemns any people.” Proverbs 14:34.

NIGERIANS AND WALLOWING IN PERVADING IGNORANCE

NIGERIANS AND WALLOWING IN PERVADING IGNORANCE

While on a trip to Kigali, Rwanda, a friend of mine had need of a commercial motorbike, known there as boda-boda. After stating his destination, he was given a price. A quick mental calculation revealed that the sum was equal to three thousand naira. My friend protested at having to pay such a sum, when the distance in his estimation, was not that much.

Ask Me About My Marriage

Ask Me About My Marriage

Go ahead. Ask me about this man that I loved so much, enough, in fact, to agree to marry him just so that I could spend the rest of my life with him. The rest of my life. Isn’t that something?
