LIFE AT KABAKA’S LAKE

KABAKA’S LAKE BEING A HUB FOR DRUG Addicts.
Kabaka’s lake is the largest man made lake in Uganda, located in Rubaga division kampala .

It occupies 2square killometres and it is about 200 feet deep on average. To date it is one of the 2 excavated lakes in East Africa and one of the biggest of the kind in Africa.

It is meant to attract tourists but instead its being misused by people who come to work and enjoy the beautiful scenary around the lake by taking drugs and Miira is the commonly sold and used drug around Kabaka’s lake.


Deo a student of ICT at St. Lawrence university says that the kingdom of Buganda isn’t caring for the lake hence providing a conducive environment for those drug addicts he also adds that it is as a result of unemployment and low standards.


Frank Muyanja also a student of journalism and mass communication at St. Lawrence University says that people who work around Kabaka’s lake work the whole day and late night hence taking miira to keep them awake the whole night in order to work well without dosing he also added that it increases man power hence making them good in bed.

However, Kabaka’s lake has also been a place where people do some good businesses like washing cars, selling maize and others.

In this lock down the businesses have alot bit declined and a few are now earning, Namutebi Doreen is a mother of four selling maize at the lake side narrates her story though she didn’t allow us take her picture.

She has worked around the lake side for more than one and a half years, she entered the business of selling maize just after the first phase of Corona virus in the month of May 2020.

Coming from Masaka to Kampala wasn’t the biggest problem but where to stay, she found a hard life to cope up with and therefore decided to go back in the village and get maize to sell. Earning a little to feed her little kid aged 4 years was her aim because the husband got stuck in the lands of Gishu during the first lock down and till date he has never been back home.

Nomatter the situation, Doreen has never failed to move on. Selling maize is her daily work where she has managed to earn atleast 10,000# per day. But in this lock down she says that the business isn’t still earning like it was but she still earns for a daily income to provide food to her and the kids.

POLICE CHASES COVID-19

Since the speech of the president of Uganda, Y. K Museveni that brought a total lock down where no one is allowed to open their businesses.

Many people in Kampala city and other parts have not welcomed the guidelines put forward, they claim they don’t have what to eat and therefore they can’t stay home.

The government through its task force proposed to send them help through a mobile money to reach everyone earlier.

However, on addition. The government has put LDUs, Police, Military on the roads to enforce covid guidelines.

Many have collided with the men in Uganda uniform and hence becoming injured, a week back some boda boda rider was shot and died on spot as he was trying to cross from one district to another.

Uganda situation now leaves many asking themselves questions, how will this end if one to die with a bullet is better than dieing of the virus.

A man called a father!

A man fully called a man is a blessing that comes with the power Of having a child.

African settings refer to him as the father like ways other worlds.
But how important are they?
A father tells a story
“I got an accident when I was driving my lorry and it left my libs nursing wounds, It took me almost a year not working because my car got spoilt and had no where to get a single penny from but guess what?

My family could not afford to buy food and whatever they wanted, it was me to deliver them while on sick beds. Kids will come asking for sweet and so on.

As a man and a father I could not say am not having money but to give promises and sketch money in any way. A father never lives minus giving or minus minding about his people whether the wife is having money or not he will still provide the family with everything needed.

That’s what makes up a man be called a father “
Happy father’s day to all men called fathers
