We all have a history. Save for the rich kids who grew up around Kampala, for majority of Ugandans our past is a complete opposite of our current situation.
And like they say, money cannot buy you happiness, but one thing that is for sure is that it can buy you a new look and new lifestyle.
Take a look at Ugandan celebrities who are proof that we are not ugly, but just broke.

Bryan Sabiiti Mckenzie
For former Radio Presenter Bryan Sabiiti Mckenzie, the story is long.
“2008. I was staying in Kikoni. My house rent was 160k per month, I got a bed from my uncle but couldn’t buy a mattress that could fit the bed, I had no curtains, so I got a cloth from home and hanged it on the window rails, the windows were broken so mosquitoes were welcome. This is around the time I had won my first award for best radio personality at Buzz. I later shifted to Entebbe for 2years.
I don’t take for granted the blessings that have come my way. Only God knew the future was bright. I learnt recently that not every bad thing that happens to you or no situation you are in today should define your tomorrow.”
