    LOL @ vision. I picked on Oloya coz I know he is from Pader.

    If u read the story, it says some where that, "The visitors are not allowed to stand, but kneel throughout the introductions, with the girl's father asking the questions." The chairs are there but not 4 the use of the in-laws. The buvera, I am sure, contain gifts 4 the in-laws. 1 guy even has a brief case. I smell dollars here. This must be 1 hot babe these young men were after...

    haha.. my goodness kneeling throughout the ceremony?.. I hope for their sake it's not as long as some baganda ceremonies I have been to.. I heard these days it's become even longer with babe having to change her outfit several times etc  buvera and briefcase ruin the pic for me... I prefer baskets, gourds etc

    If it's going to be it's up to me

    TRIBES ARE GOOD,

    but tribalism is BAD it undermines the vision of society.

    EVERY TRIBE

    has a unique CULTURE and VISION.

    And whatever is good and noble and true in that culture should be RESPECTED.

    TO ALL THE ACHOLI 

    I say THANKS FOR BEING PROUD OF YOURSELVES  and of ua CULTURAL PRACTICES.

     

    Afoyo totwal,

     afoyo matek,

      afoy bino.

    IAM because WE are , and since WE are, therefore IAM

    Re: Omukungu wa Kabaka adduse mu bya S 4 - www.source bugandasocietynorway.com

     Isn't this funny? What type of people are serving the Kabaka? No wonder Buganda is heading nowhere. read below.

     Bya Siraje Kizito

    OMUKUNGU wa Kabaka Siraje Ssewava Sserubiri yakooye banyaga. Yazzeeyo okusoma n’atuula S. 4, kyokka bwe yatuuse ku kibuuzo ky’okubala n’agamba nti wano wafiira muloge.

    Ssewava yabadde akola bibuuzo bya Siniya eyookuna ebigenda mu maaso, kyokka y’omu ku bayizi abataalabiseeko mu kukola ekibuuzo ky’okubala n’Olungereza wiiki ewedde.

    Ku Lwokusatu aba S4 bakoze ekibuuzo ky’okubala ku makya nolweggulo kyokka mu bitundu ebitali bimu abayizi abamu tebazze, abalala baafulumye oluvanyuma lwokubulwa bye bawandiika nga bagamba nti byabadde bizibu.

    Omwogezi w’ekitongole ky’ebibuuzo Muky. Eva Konde yagambye nti okubala n’Olungereza bye bisalawo omuntu okuyitira mu ddaala erisooka n’okufuna satifikeeti, n’olwekyo aba tabikoze tabifuna.

    Okubala ly’essomo abayizi ly ebasinga okutya. Ssewava Sserubiri ye mukungu wa Kabaka avunaanyizibwa ku kusomesa abantu ku by’ettaka mu Buganda.

    Yabadde atuulira ku senta ya KCC eya Lugogo nnamba U0236 gye baatadde ku ssomero lya Nakivubo Blue etuurirwamu abayizi abatalina masomero n’abakulu mu myaka.

    Mu kifo kino wabadde walina okutuulirawo abayizi 150 kyokka 14 tebaalabiseeko .

    Wabula Ssewava bwe twamukubidde ssimu n’ategeezezza nti yabadde mulwadde omusujja ne gumulemesa okukola ebibuuzo beyo.

    Eyabadde akuuma ebibuuzo ku senta eno Mw. Sam Lutaaya yagambye nti abayizi abatuulira wano tebaba mu yunifoomu beyambalira nga bwe baagala.

    Yes its funny Omatodi (short of hilarious) - only I hope you also keep in mind that its not only unique to Buganda but to the whole of the nation.

    Thats food for thought indeed - how many can face up to their shortcomings and are even willing to do something to rectify it?
