The World Cup is already underway and I decided to run back to the continent in time. The African teams have not had a great start save for the Black Stars but I do believe Ivory Coast and Nigeria have good chances to bounce back. I am hoping by the time i head south for the semis and final which will find me in Johannesburg, an African team will be still present.
I will be part of the Ugandan youth delegation to the Man Up campaign summit on violence against women which hopes to use music and sport to raise awareness among physical and structural violence against women. I hope the haters of the Vuvuzela will not suceed to stop it. I will be with many distinguished activists to vuvuzela away violence against women as the curtains come down in Jo’burg.

One thought on “Vuvuzelaring all the way”
Look at what some people are saying Rosebell about the vuvuzelas.
Very petty of them i might say.
