Nyigos is how bonds were formed
KAMPALA: Nothing killed the Kampala nightlife like the lounging nonsense. In those days it was unheard of that you leave your living room only to go into another living room. There was no need for a reservation. You came and we fought for the dance space inch by inch… Those days, us with the dance moves would easily flex with those that had invested in the gym.
I have always thought of myself as a ninja, moving in the nights, observing everything through the darkness. There is something about the dark, the best and worst of things happen in the dark. You never know a city, a town, until you do ka overnight in the place. And you see, the friends you make in the night, those are the ones that really know you. Forget those other corporate friends, the ‘actually’ people, now obsessed with sustainability.
The way everyone now adds the word sustainability to everything in Kampala. Mbu it is sustainable financing, simanya sustainable marketing. Trust Kampala people with chasing the trends, this ESG craziness will not leave them behind. But as we discuss sustainability, something has surely gone amiss with the Kampala night scene.
It all started with that madness of the lounging scene, when bars thought they should also serve as restaurants. You see in the good old days, you ate some hard katogo first, then went and partied the night away. It was the mosquito-no pass dance floors.
