I really love the fact that Kampala is more than a city, it’s seven hills, countless stories, and a style all its own.

For Designers who would like to be part,

I think I’m officially obsessed with this woman😂❤️
Woke up this morning missing her like we’ve been apart for years.
At this point, even my dreams are asking when she’ll be around. 🥹❤️
Love is a serious condition😂that needs to be addressed.

KEEP THE MOMENTUM GOING 🙏🦍
Thank you to everyone who has voted for me as a Top 5 CNN Hero of 2026. Your support has been overwhelming.
Many of you have asked what is next. The @CNN Hero of the Year is decided purely by public voting, and we are now in the voting period every single day until November 29th.
This is where consistency wins. We need your 10 votes every day.
I know it is a big ask, but I have learned from the communities around Bwindi that when we do small things together every day, big change happens.
Could you please make this part of your morning routine?

Click, vote 10 times. Less than a minute.
And please share this link with one colleague, one friend, one family WhatsApp group today.
Your vote is a vote for the endangered mountain gorillas, for the health of their human neighbors, and for the One Health approach that connects us all.
From my heart, and on behalf of our team at @CTPHuganda and @GCCoffee1 , thank you 🙏🏾

God saved me from doing this on 1st Jan. 2010. If you still smoke, kindly quit.

Fellow Ugandans, why aren’t we talking about this lady enough? 👀
Dr. Gladys Kalema-Zikusoka has been nominated as a CNN Hero, and she’s now among the TOP 5! 🇺🇬
Yes, a Ugandan is among the top five CNN Heroes, and we have an opportunity to bring this recognition home!
For those who don’t know, Dr. Gladys is Uganda’s first wildlife veterinarian. Through her work, she has dedicated her life to wildlife conservation, protecting mountain gorillas and putting Uganda on the global map.
She’s also consistently featured on major international media platforms, telling Uganda’s conservation story and promoting our tourism.
Honestly, if we are looking for a person to appoint as Uganda’s Tourism and Conservation Ambassador, her name deserves to be in that conversation.
But first, let’s get her this CNN Heroes award!
Ugandans, let’s show up! You have 10 times a day.
Vote here: cnn.com/world/heroes/vote
Let’s bring this one home! 🇺🇬

Congratulations to His Highness the Emorimor on the 4th Anniversary @DailyMonitor
Hundreds have gathered at Acunet Stadium in Teso North, Busia County, Kenya, for the 4th coronation anniversary of Papa Emorimor Paul Sande Emolot, King of the Iteso Cultural Union. The landmark event has drawn over 100 royalty and delegates from across the globe—including Zambia, Ghana, Eswatini, Egypt, Tanzania, Southern Africa, and the Zulu Kingdom—alongside prospective investors from the UK, US, India, and China, highlighting East Africa's prime business and investment potential.

After my dad passed,I made a camp for this EP. In that camp I made Yoyo,Home and Commando.
Commando was the first song I did after that crazy period in my life…I was taking crying breaks between takes.😂…And I was far from back to who I was.
But I believe I’m destined for something greater than the pain I’ve been through so I keep going.
Life of a commando.♥️

The past two days have been so eventful. I trended on a boda 😂
Then my birthday came with amazing news. I need some rest 😂
As I celebrate another year of life, my heart is full.
What better birthday gift than finding myself featured in the Tangaza Africa Tourism Pulse, published by the African Tourism Board. A whole two-page feature, highlighting my journey, my work with young people and what we are building through @GITA_Africa
For an organisation championing African tourism by encouraging us to use our own resources, destinations, networks and stories to promote Africa. Being recognised on such a platform is truly special.
My heart is full. ❤️

At Rashid's and Florence's final training session in Kampala, I could see the excitement throughout and feel the weight of responsibility they carry.

It's a beautiful morning
Still overwhelmed from the love and prayers I received as I celebrated my birthday yesterday. My highlight was when a meeting I had with @zakialucky11 and @CalsaarCultural ended with celebrating me. Very grateful
Moving on, I will act my "age" 🙄😂. So help me God
