Hi Richard,
 
I can tripple guarantee you that in that case, Kinobe is clearly behind schedule. However, as an alternative, Kinobe may want to inquire with Mpiima just in case . I don't seem to remember as of now other cadets who had younger sis's in Ndejje during our time.
 
Suffice to say that Kinobe might as well be running against time. It's never too late
 
On a more serious note, those pictures of ba Cadets looked great! wow!! Thanks to all who put this together. Arthur & Daniel Musigire, Mbabazi & Mugisa all featured!! Prossy, Lydia, Allen and crew! Eeh! Ritah where were you?
 
Anyway regards to you all.
Timo

Yes Timmo,
 
How is your younger sis'? I'm just trying to make Kinobe's request clearer... But thanks for the article too. When do you want to ever drop in here?
About 5 years ago, I used to pray at Kitintale Church. I was always in touch as you know, so I thought I would catch you around, but wapi?
 
Best - Rchd.

Hi folks,
I found this quite hilarious! ...but barely scratching the surface.

Ndejje, the home of high esteem
By Isaac Sekuuma
 
Ndejje SS will always remain the best of the best, although up to now some people just cannot comprehend and look at me weirdly whenever I say I’m from Ndejje and can’t stop asking, “Where is Ndejje?”
This to me is the only school in the country which has built a certain esteem among the students that can’t be traced anywhere else. While at school, one had to use the “smart option”, which was English, although most of the students preferred smarter options; which ranged from Runyamusharara for our cousins from the west, to Lunyole for the easterners.
Self esteem was one of the key factors that were emphasised at school, thanks to the dear HM and chaplain’s efforts. This was adopted by everyone, in that it wasn’t strange to find a very young intelligent boy talking utmost nothing to a very attentive audience for close to an hour.
Concerning morals and religion, I will say bravo to Ndejje because the Reverend put in his all to get everyone to church. I remember on certain Sundays when he had to pull up his cassock helm to chase and pump some sense into some people’s heads to go to mass. His efforts are reflected even here at MUK, as in, at St Francis Chapel, Ndejje is well represented.
As for dating and relationships, anything that involved a member of the fairer sex going one on one with a boy would be termed as “dark-cornering”. So, for one to have his way with the fairer sex, he had to call on a friend to escort him because two boys could not “dark-corner” a single girl.
Hugging and holding waists was unacceptable and rare and has had its effects up to university as it’s very uncommon to find a typical Ndejjerian (one who spent six years at the school) hugging or holding a girl’s waist.
So, people out there, if you try to give someone a peck, hug, or hold their hands or waist and they refuse, just know that that’s a Ndejjerian and it’s our culture; we are not “local”.

When i read that article i was compelled to think that some Cadets are taking this culture way too far.
I think it was meant to model us into responsible people that we are today but not to have a negative impact on us.
 
Now am afraid that this culture has taken its toll on the under listed cadets.
 
1. Kawere Patrick a.ka Ponchu
2. Mpiima Michael
3. Damulira Andrew a.k.a Dimazo
4. The Bacadet secretary (Deo Nkugwa)
5. Rita Nakayinga
6. Galiwango Godfrey
7. Mwanje Alex
 
Eh,,, i might never be able to end that list.
Banange, the thought of these guys sticking to the Ndejje culture is a terrifying prospect.
 
Tuja kubalaga eky'okukola ! Prossy, did u mention in your earlier mail that you cand handle such ??
 
Nice afternoon.

Yeah -
 
These were permanently obedient fellows. To them, "No dark-cornering" meant and means just that. In fact, maybe, with the exception of Mpiima, I see Kawere jumping in hiding if he encountered Kironde around town..
 
And when I look at Dimazo, Galiwango, ... given their know poor track record in Physics and Math, I see him inconvenienced at the sight of Mr. Musoke or Mr. Kabagambe. So, Kiibi, inform them that, a little 'dark-cornering' can now be accepted.
