The Namugongo Pilgrimage and Uganda's Pseudo Patriotism Trainings

It is time to learn from these believers who annually undertake that pilgrimage and faithfully repeat the action year after year. If the Government ever wants patriotism to take root, it has to start by ensuring that the leadership is exemplary. You need

A few weeks to the annual celebration of the Uganda Martyrs, groupings of believers commence walks to the site of Namugongo from various parts of the country.

Thousands of Christians from the country and other parts of the world are at Uganda Martyrs shrine in Namugongo. Over 4million people are expected to attend at the Catholics and protestant shrines. The day is commemorated on June 3 every year in honor of the martyrdom of 45 young men who converted to Christianity between 1885 and 1887. The conversions annoyed the then King of Buganda, Mwanga II who ordered that they are burnt to death. Many of the pilgrims walked hundreds of miles from within and outside Uganda up to Namugongo as a sign of honor to the Martyrs. #namugongo #ugandamartyrs

As I mentioned in the caption of my last picture, the Daytona at Quality Shopping Village in Namugongo, Kampala, Uganda has become Heritage Bar & Restaurant but still has the same great ambiance and serves the same amazing pork! #Daytona #Heritage #Quality #QualityShoppingVillage #Namugongo #Kampala #Uganda #VisitUganda #PearlOfAfrica #EastAfrica #Africa #Afrika #Bar #Pub #Drinks #Pork #GoodFood #GoodEats #FunTimes #ChickAboutTownDotCom (at Quality Shopping Village Namugongo)

As Kampala, Uganda grows and the city moves outwards, so too do the services geared towards those moving to the suburbs. Quality Shopping Village is a hub for all those who live in Namugongo and around. If you know anything about this place, you know I was taking this shot from near the bar adjoining the parking. Formally, a Daytona, it's now changed names but serves the same GREAT pork! #QualitySupermarket #Namugongo #Kampala #Uganda #VisitUganda #PearlofAfrica #EastAfrica #Africa #Afrika #Malls #ShoppingCenter #Mall #ShoppingCenters #ChickAboutTownDotCom (at Quality Shopping Village Namugongo)

All roads lead to Namugongo today - west of Kampala - to commemorate the lives of the Uganda Martyrs. Their story is incredibly powerful, and draws in over one million pilgrims to Uganda every year. Read how I became involved in promoting religious or 'faith-based' http://bit.ly/1TZqpd0

All roads lead to Namugongo

Commemorating the Uganda Martyrs. How did the muzungu end up in Namugongo? It always makes me laugh: the unexpected things I end up getting involved in Uganda, so I shouldn’t have been surprised when John Ssempebwa, …

Kampala, Uganda to me is a city filled with simple pleasures. Hanging out in Kampala is not so much about where you go but who you hang out with. In Kampala, gathering around a crate of beer (or some Uganda waragi) in someone's backyard can be more fun than being at the most stellar cocktail lounge in another city. Kampalans themselves are all the fun you need! This picture comes from just one such hang in my uncle and aunt's backyard. I can still taste this delicious chicken that was marinated in honey and soy sauce. The pork we made that same day was offfffff the hook! #GoodTimes #Namugongo #Kampala #Uganda #VisitUganda #PearlOfAfrica #EastAfrica #Africa #Afrika #Barbecue #BBQ #Chicken #Grill #ChickAboutTownDotCom (at Namugongo)
