BACKGROUND
I am the second born in a family of ten children. I grew up with my mother in Busowoko village Butagaya sub-county in Jinja district. My family is a humble one and God fearing. There is love shared among the members of the family. I went to Gertrude academy primary school and later joined Iganga secondary school for my secondary education.
