Godiva and Jacky for Education Ministers!
These are the people who will sow seeds of true education through many women. Thank you so much.
appreciative
great show, this might be the only show covering ugandan history. i like the variety and different topic areas you choose.
excited to see how this develops further and how it can be a platform for conversation between ugandans everywhere, africans, and the broader african diaspora.
great work, everybody. 👌🏿
