Don't wait until graduation to start discovering your potential. Don't let your academic timetable become the boundary of your ambition.
University should not only prepare you to pass exams. It should prepare you to face life.

Think about that for a moment!
While many students were concentrating solely on passing their examinations, he was also learning how to navigate the professional world, build experience and turn his talent into an opportunity @SammyWetala 🫡

Lose the Label 🏷️ wounded 🫵🏿
🤎Recently God led me through a season of confronting the labels I had carried for years. I had allowed wounds, words and lies to attach themselves to my Identity until believed a lie: what happened to me defines me. Food approval, affirmation became the places I ran to for comfort, but they could never heal what only God’s truth could restore.
Labels like unloved, unwanted, rejected 🙅, insecure, and ashamed kept me locked in the prison God never intended for me. I was running 🏃 hard to escape them, but his grace was inviting me to face them, line them up with his word, and let them go.
To be continued 🥰🥰🥰🫶🫶🙏🏽🙏🏽
Shaped by Grace 😪🧎♂️🧎♂️

Excited to build on this vision and contribute to Uganda’s growing technology ecosystem.

Well said 📌📌🤍
Being an A student is not always ENOUGH!
Books can earn you good grades, but they don't guarantee the job, the deal, or the room.
Our guest @SammyWetala knows this first hand.
He started campus as a top performer, on government scholarship, everything going perfectly. Then in second year, life happened.
He landed his first real contract, 750K a month as a copywriter, while still a student. Suddenly lectures were competing with real work, real money, real exposure.
That is the lesson;
The ones who win after campus are not always the ones with the best grades but the ones who stepped outside the classroom and let the world see their talent.
To be successful, you have to step out of your comfort zone,work on your soft skills,interact,seek opportunities,be audacious enough to show what you can do beyond the classroom.

Who Are The People of Kisoro?
Welcome to Kisoro, in the far south-west of Uganda, at the border of Rwanda and Congo.
The majority here are the Bafumbira, made up of clans.
Abasindi, Abachaba (or Abacyaba), Abasinga (with subgroups like the Basinga under the Bagahe), Abakyondo, Abazigaba, Abagesera, Abagiri, Abagara, Abarihira, Abungura, Abatundu.
Together they share one language, one land, and one proud identity. Kisoro is not just a place you visit, it is a people you meet.

The Spirit of Nyabingi!
Before Christianity and Islam became dominant, the Bafumbira worshipped Imana, the creator, through spiritual mediums.
The Bafumbira worshipped Nyabingi, a female divinity, and built shrines for her. She was the divinity of cultivators for the Bahuutu. Even today, respect for elders, ancestors and the land remains deeply rooted in Kisoro life.
