Moses Matovu, a career like no other before or after - The Observer Media Ltd (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Over the past two months, I spoke five times with Moses Matovu, popularly known in our inner circle as Papa Moi. In football circles, I am a realist and radical who has sometimes fallen out with some people. But in Matovu, I have always had a buffer to reach out to even in extreme times. In most times when we talked, it would be about reminiscing about the good old times and the future ahead of our beloved Jogoo. But in these past few weeks, our chats had become somehow intense. Matovu was the b
A throne is never empty and why succession is war, not mourning - The Observer Media Ltd (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Succession within a kingdom is frequently misunderstood as a period of mourning, yet this interpretation fundamentally misreads the nature of royal authority. It is sad that King Oyo died on August 27. Nonetheless, the kingdom did not pause to grieve in the manner of an ordinary family. His death initiated an immediate and silent struggle for the throne, because a kingdom cannot endure even a single moment without a head.

The 25 years we were never taught to live - The Observer Media Ltd (opens the original)
Read excerpt
No school will ever teach us about this stage. The hardest phase of life is not childhood, not adolescence, not the stress of raising children or building a career.

The body asks for more care as the circle of friends shrinks. Independence begins to mean something different. Goodbyes accumulate. And the question that haunts most elders
International school phenomenon a trap for Ugandan parents - The Observer Media Ltd (opens the original)
Read excerpt
International schools are very good. Let us not lie about that. The facilities are good, the English is good, the exposure is good. But with the liberty that goes with it, parents need to be extremely careful and disciplined. Let me educate you where this idea came from. For starters, international schools were designed for diplomats, ambassadors, and UN staff. Why? Because an ambassador from France posted to Uganda for three years cannot put his child in PLE system, then take him to Kenya next
Here’s why I believe Ankole is sleeping on its sacred cow - The Observer Media Ltd (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This goes out to my Ankole relatives, in-laws and friends. For starters, God gave you cattle; it is your lifeblood. More importantly, God has given you time “in things” for the past 40 years. And based on the current trends in the country, your children are the future leaders. Bagyenzi, sit down. This is not politics or sheer rhetoric, but a eulogy or an announcement for something that is fundamentally troubling me. The Ankole longhorn cattle are a revered asset, so much so that as far back as 2
