The view from @CNN headquarters as I wait… A little adrenaline, a few nerves - first time going LIVE. About to go #OutFront on @OutFrontCNN to talk about the airplane incident I captured at Newark Liberty. Let’s do this.

When @Kasuku256 started our conversation by saying that “those days you were fat”🤣, he was correct. And here is proof of then & now! A tribute to my running & spin communities & to the man who changed my relationship with food, @drkasenene

When “Teka mu wa Lukumi” Was almost Economic Policy. There is a certain innocence in today’s panic about oil prices -as if the world has just discovered that engines drink, and geopolitics sometimes spikes the bill. My young friends scrolling through Brent charts like they are Premier League tables, allow me -an alumnus of the University of “Sibyangu” -to take you back. Because this movie? We have watched it before. On VHS. Rewound. Then watched again when the tape got stuck. The 1980s oil shocks, courtesy of the Iran–Iraq war, didn’t just rattle economists in suits -they introduced Ugandans to a new form of cardio: queueing at Wandegeya petrol stations. Lines so long you could greet a cousin in Makerere and still return to your car without losing your place. The rule? Maximum 20 litres. A kadomola. Enough to move from “hopeful” to “still stranded, but with purpose.” And then came the real curriculum: survival engineering. Ugandan drivers became part-time scientists. Newton met necessity. You learned the sacred art of kuwondowadi -engine off, gliding downhill in respectful silence, as if the car had entered prayer mode. Passengers instinctively stopped talking, as though conversation itself consumed fuel. That was 'Solar' mode. Now, the cars. Oh, the cars were not just machines -they were co-conspirators. Those were the times of the good old carburetor system, not the Electronic fuel Injection (EFI) times we use today. The legendary Baby Fiat -850cc of pure discipline -was less a car and more a lifestyle choice. It didn’t consume fuel; it negotiated with it. Then came the slightly “ambitious” cousin, the Fiat 900E (900cc), which felt like upgrading from tea to tea with milk. Still humble, still obedient, but with just enough ego to climb a hill without consulting ancestors. The Mini 1000? A pocket-sized warrior. The Volkswagen Kombi? A moving village meeting -underpowered, overburdened, but spiritually committed. And that Honda Civic…ah! If driven by a wise man who knew when to accelerate and when to surrender to gravity, it could stretch a litre like a budget speech -tight, calculated, and surprisingly effective. Of course, no crisis is complete without Ugandan entrepreneurship. Enter the “OPEC boys.” Black market fuel dealers who operated with the confidence of multinational CEOs. If you knew one, your tank had hope. If you knew two, you were practically energy independent. Fast forward. Hormuz is misbehaving again. It's not being straight. Prices are climbing like rent in Kitukutwe. Transport fares are negotiating with your soul. But relax. We come from a generation that turned 850cc into a national strategy. That converted slopes into fuel stations. That believed, firmly, that if you timed your downhill correctly, Kampala itself would carry you home. And somehow -engine off, faith on -we always arrived in our Angaliya Kakokola. We are a resilient people. Yes, we #Ugandans are. We shall overcome. #Byebyo #OilRally #Uganda
