Recently I was scrolling on twitter and came across a video clip of a young girl being forced into a car in an alleged abduction for marriage aka okukyiriza in Ruyankole. According to the poster of the video, the auntie of the young girl was part of the operation. To say this video made me sick to my stomach is an understatement and wish I had the ability to unsee it. According to some commentators on social media, they say the incident happened in Kyotera District and the victim is a S.

When Government of Uganda finally confirmed that Pope Francis will be coming to Uganda, it was thrilling and all Ugandans were looking forward to the historic visit and being part of it. By virtue of my job, I knew I would be heavily involved especially when it comes to Publicity and media management. This was another chance to be involved in facilitating a big event, the first one being CHOGM in 2007. I am always heavily involved in government events but I knew that the Pope’s visit would be special.
