Iam a witness to stories that unfold on street corners where dreams collide with despair!

From the Streets to Purpose: Meet Benjamin My name is Benjamin, and this is my story. I was once a street child in Kisenyi, Kampala—a place where survival is a daily battle, and dreams often feel out of reach. But even in the hardest moments, I held onto one thing: hope.

Delighted to have attended the G-Community event in Katwe last Sunday. Ever since my first encounter with @TheeGhettoDuke at Kisenyi in 2023, his guidance has always uplifted me. This gathering was full of wisdom, encouragement, and genuine positivity. I left truly inspired.

On Sunday, something sacred unfolded in Katwe. It wasn’t an event. It wasn’t a program. It wasn’t a project. It was a homecoming of the soul — a community remembering who we once were, who we still are, and who we can become if we choose each other. For hours, Katwe breathed

After a week of suspension over the allegations of smuggling a power bank, I’m finally going back to school. The experience wasn’t easy, but it taught me valuable lessons about patience, responsibility, and focus.

When floods hit, they have nowhere to escape. It’s time for those in charge to act — not just to rebuild the city but to protect its most vulnerable.

When the rains come, the water rises fast, carrying dirt, waste, and danger through places like Kisenyi and downtown Kampala. For a child on the streets, the Channel is not just drainage — it’s a sleeping spot, a hiding place, sometimes even a reflection of their forgotten lives

The Nakivubo Channel, once meant to protect the city from flooding, has now become a threat to those who live closest to it — especially the homeless and street children.

Arab Sudanese Islamists terrorize a Christian mother and her three children. The mother and her children were murdered after this video was taken. First they terrorized her while they filmed it. Then they slaughtered her in cold blood.

Yes,being a valedictorian isn’t only about grades — it’s about excellence in both academics and character. But again when you're publicly humiliated in a country men and country women, your publicity can't be totally vanish at the moment

As long as I have breath and a pen to write with, I will keep telling the untold stories — the ones from the corners of the streets, the classrooms, and the hearts that the world overlooks. Because sometimes, the deepest pain gives birth to the strongest purpose.
