PARENTING MEN LISTEN For the boy child, you don’t say I want you to go running, you say let’s go run. You don’t say, I want you to cook, you say let’s cook. You don’t say I want you to clean, you say let’s clean. You don’t say wake up early, you say we shall wake up so early tomorrow. It helps them appreciate that men or boys too can cook, can clean, can exercise, can lay beds, clean their toilets.

Back in Kampala and had great weather for today’s morning jog which is nice, arrived my bed 4.30am tired from airport yesterday so couldn’t run. In kasese during the Tusker Lite Rwenzori Marathon last year, a young man walks to me after the marathon and says, I stayed up last night to observe you. He hardly slept, I saw you pacing around, engaging people, I saw your son too doing stuff. I thought if I was you, I would have just slept. I tell him, the whole team hardly sleeps, reason Uganda has a Tusker Lite Rwenzori Marathon which attracts people from more than 30 countries. If we sleep the 1000 Kenyans both runners and those who came for fun wouldn’t have come to Uganda. That means the food they ate wouldn’t have been eaten. The cars they hired from Ugandans wouldn’t have been hired, the accommodations they slept in wouldn’t have worked. If each Kenyan spent usd 600, Uganda would have miss the usd 60k earnings from team Kenya. We need 10,000 Ugandans out of 45.9m to do things that can bring in 1000 Kenyans for example and the country would earn usd 6,000,000 Another 10k bringing in 1000 Americans each spending 2k and figures would be crazy, jobs would never be a problem, critical mass issues. Nothing good just happens

Morning Jog today Waited for the rain to stop so I could go for my morning jog but it didn’t! Mentally I can’t stand excuses , so I went all out with a rain jacket. It’s 4 times a week, 40 kilometers a week, almost a full marathon every week.

TOURISM HIGH SEASON I flew into Entebbe airport on 31st May 2026 from Mombasa aboard Uganda Airlines good service but almost empty plane. I flew out on 5th June 2026 to Rwanda, almost empty plane and flew back yesterday almost empty plane and Entebbe airport basically empty for a high season. I sat a crane cafeteria at entebbe airport on the 5th of June with my son and was excited to see 3 other people join us, I recorded a video. Uganda has one international airport, as we arrived I could feel the immigration officers were excited to see us, they filled the booths to see everyone served quickly and simply took minutes to go through. Tanzania now with many international airports is booming, every airport is crazy busy, yes they border Congo too. Young people are busy because of tourism across Tanzania. Today Rwanda is hosting UB 40 and I met Ugandans , Nigerians, Namibians, Kenyans etc who have flown in to watch UB 40, those are opportunities for the country and the population understands that. I was shocked at MOVENPICK hotel how many waiters walked to me to thank me for posting about Rwanda online. 2 of them said, when Rwanda appears in good light, it sustains their jobs. They held BAL just recently and spenders flew from everywhere to watch the most entertaining basketball games on the continent. It’s not just about the game but great imagine it continues to build for the country. Kenya is booming, even the few conferences which were meant for Uganda are either going there or the other neighbors, Kenya is hosting 100s of conferences. Mombasa alone was maxing out when I was there end of May 2026, I witnessed a 400 room hotel send away another 100 guests. A dream for Uganda hotel owners! UGANDAS MAJOR ISSUE? Handling is information and it’s been worse in the last 6yrs. Wrong people facing the cameras
