Have you ever come across a couple who doesn’t fight? Well that is really next to impossible as when you spend most of your time and a major part of your life with one person, misunderstandings and conflicts are bound to arise.

That doesn’t make the love you two have for each other any less and in many cases, it brings you rather closer than before. A healthy relation can never escape a few fights here and there. So we get for you nine such things that men and women look at differently, which become issues leading to misunderstandings!

1. Not specifying the exact time duration

Women are usually more specific when it comes to specifying how much time it will take for them to finish a particular chore, reach some place or organizing their schedule. Men however, are not. They say they will be back from the gym in an hour, but that hour somehow becomes three. Or, when you send them to the store to get something you need immediately, the immediate factor is seldom taken into consideration.

2. When either of you don’t take hints

Men are not expressive while woman expect men to read their minds. They both don’t openly tell each other what they want and only leave each other hints for the other to catch, act upon and deliver. But when both fail to catch the hints, is where the feeling of losing all hope and not expecting anything ever from each other steps in.

3. Not calling to inform

If you are getting late at work, your wife wants you to call and inform her so that she doesn’t have to worry. But usually it works the other way round. When men don’t call to inform about important or not very significant matters, it kind of drives their women crazy. And what’s wrong in that, a phone call wouldn’t cost a fortune right?

4. The question of what affection means to you

For women, the meaning of affection might just be a stroll on the beach while holding hands, watching a movie while cuddling, sweet whispers and just small flirtatious gestures while for men, it is mostly having sex. This can be a serious issue that mostly leads to major fights!

5. Assuming you two are the cause to each other’s problems

You both might be discussing how things are not working out at your respective workplaces or how you are having trouble with the in-laws or the kids etc. But more than often, the other person for no reason assumes that he or she is being blamed for all that is going wrong. This further leads to never-ending and heated arguments!

6. His getting lost in the details

While women like to cling on to each and every detail of an argument, men want a precise to the point description. When they get caught in the details, they tend to panic and whatever comes out of their mouths next might not be in their favor. Their confusion digs them their own grave!

7. The definition of spending quality time

For men, going to the store together to get the groceries or the time they are home in the morning getting dressed for their work is called spending time together. On the other hand, for women, going on a date, having coffee while discussing your routines, going on a holiday etc are things that qualify as spending quality time together. The clash in thinking further causes fights!

8. Listening and not registering

Most men just lend a year for their women to yell but don’t actually register anything. Not only during fights but in general conversations too, men hardly register anything that is told or asked out of them. Now that can be something really frustrating!

9. When he delays everything you tell him to do

If a woman wants her husband to get some repairs done in the house, get some things from the store or just anything else, the work usually doesn’t get done without her having to repeat it 10 times. That causes major irritation and sets the ground for a fight.

The post 9 Common Things That Can Create Misunderstanding Between Partners In A Relationship appeared first on Bigeye.ug.

Do you think there exists a being called the ‘perfect guy’? Someone who is the ideal man, who listens when you talk, who does things without you having to tell him again and again, the perfect charmer, the real gentleman. Well, maybe he does, maybe he doesn’t, but every girl sure does dream of one.

So, we give the men an opportunity to become the perfect guy for the girls. Here is a list of simple things that every woman wants her man to do and that mean the world to her!

1. Cleaning up after himself

She has enough work to do already and picking up your clothes, shoes, used utensils and gadgets after you is the last thing she wants to do.

2. Loving her pet

If she has a pet, she probably loves it more than she loves you. Being compassionate towards her pet will make you the apple of her eye!

3. Remembering her friends and family member’s name

If you keep a track of all her close friends and family member’s names, it goes on to show her how deeply you are involved with her and the interest you take in not only yours, but her world as well!

4. Non-judgmental about her clothes and food

Let her wear what makes her feel beautiful and quit pointing out what she should and should not eat. Letting her be herself around you will make her more into you!

5. Telling her that she is pretty and SLIM

Every girl wants her guy to complement her. Not all the time but at least every now and then. And, telling her that she seems to have lost some weight is the cherry on top for her indeed!

6. Replying to her texts IMMEDIATELY

Girls need to know what they need to know when they want to know it! Confused? Well just reply to her text messages as soon as you read them and don’t prolong it by thinking you will get back to her later. Believe us; you will avoid going home and witnessing a World War III if you follow this advice!

7. Giving her casual massages

Now who wouldn’t want a relaxing and sensual body massage without even asking for it after a hectic and tiring day at work? Complete bliss!

8. Getting her stuff you get for yourself

If you decide to get yourself a smoothie, a burger or anything to eat on the way home, pack one for her too. You will be amazed at the results of this, we bet! Small gestures mean more to women than huge deeds.

9. To watch what she wishes to watch on TV

If she doesn’t want to watch cricket with you, it doesn’t really matter. You can always catch it sometime else with your guy gang. Cuddling up with her in front of the TV watching what she wants to watch will make her feel loved and the luckiest girl in the world!

10. Hugging her more often

Going all the way is not exactly what girls want all the time. Instead just hugging her off guard and more often is what she really expects out of you!

11. Going out shopping with her

Nothing in the world can make her happier than you initiating the need to go out shopping with her. She would find it difficult to believe but why not surprise her with something she had not imagined in her wildest dream?

12. Telling her what you REALLY feel

We know guys are not expressive when it comes to venting out their feelings, but girls don’t want to get involved in the guessing games of getting to know how you feel. Just tell them upfront and clear WHAT YOU FEEL!

13. Leaving her sweet love messages

Getting a message saying ‘I love you’, ‘I am thinking of you’ or ‘ you looked pretty in the morning’, while she is at work (stressing about something) will release her of all her stress and bring a huge smile on her face for sure!

14. Surprising her more often

Now who doesn’t like surprises? Well for one, we are sure women really do and nothing beats a well-planned and completely out-of-the-box one! Surprise her more often to keep the spark in your relation going!

15. Cooking for her sometimes

She always cooks and cleans for you. Wouldn’t it be a nice change if you did that for her sometime without her having to tell you? Well, it would certainly be for her! So to lighten her load, cook a romantic meal for her or bring her breakfast in bed every once in a while.

16. Giving her space

This is the paramount thing every girl wants from a relationship. Just letting her be and respecting the fact that she needs her own time to do whatever she feels like in it is something that all women need without having to ask for it.

The post 16 Things All Women Wish Their Men Would Do Without Being Told appeared first on Bigeye.ug.

If you’re inclined to think your boyfriend might not be completely over his ex-girlfriend, there are probably several reasons for your suspicion.

Maybe you’ve found him weeping while looking at his phone, mumbling, “I wish I knew how to quit you.” Maybe he’s calling out her name in the middle of the night, or, even worse, has mistakenly called you her name. Maybe he still has one of the shirts she left at his place and you’ve caught him sniffing it.

More likely though, it isn’t a completely egregious and blatant relationship violation, but something subtler that indicates he’s not quite emotionally ready to be dating at the moment.

“If your new boyfriend is constantly talking about his ex, spending time on the phone with her, meeting up with her (without including you), comparing you in a way that makes you feel less than her, these all point to the possibility of him still being connected to her in some way,” says Jane Greer, Ph.D., sex therapist and author of What About Me? Stop Selfishness From Ruining Your Relationship.

In other words, if your boyfriend is doing any (or all) of the below, there’s a chance he might still be holding a candle for his ex-flame.

1. THEY TALK—OFTEN
It’s not exactly fair to expect him to completely shut his ex out of his life—unless she’s very clearly still warm for his form—because that’s not cool. But if they’re talking all the time it’s not out of the realm of possibility that he still has feelings for her. “Either he feels guilty that he left her, or he isn’t over her,” says Greer. “He’s still remaining overly involved. If this is the case, talk to him about whether he’s really ready to be in a new relationship with you.”

Sure, maybe they salvaged a platonic relationship—or maybe he’s keeping in touch in case things don’t work out with you. Dudes occasionally view exes as safety nets.

2. HE DOUBLE TAPS AND LIKES HER SOCIAL POSTS ON THE REGULAR
We’d probably all be better off not following our exes on the Facebook, the Instagram, and the Twitter—especially when they post hot selfies that we still drool over. But a complete digital freeze-out isn’t always something a guy wants to do. You see, a block or unfollow can create post-relationship drama, and it can also make things even weirder when you have mutual friends.

However, it’s still a red flag.

3. HE CONSTANTLY HATES ON HER
It’s completely understandable if he’s a little bitter, but if he’s saltier than #SaltBae and going out of his way to talk about how much she sucked, sound the alarm. He might be trying to remind himself why he’s not with her in an attempt to convince himself he’s better off.

4. HE’S GOING HAM ON THIS RELATIONSHIP
There’s this thing some dudes do when they want to get back at their ex. They go into competitive mode by unofficially racing with their ex to see who can get to #RelationshipGoals status first. This is a match you don’t want to win.

5. YOU KNOW MORE ABOUT HIS EX THAN YOU SHOULD
If he’s constantly saying things like, “My ex never appreciated American Pickers like you do!” Or “She always texted other people while we’re at dinner.” Head for the hills. It may sound like a compliment, but he’s just comparing you to her. And you should run.

6. HE KEEPS THAT CUSTOM T-SHIRT SHE MADE FOR HIM
That inside joke about Taylor Swift was probably hilarious back in 2013, but at this point it’s just awkward for anyone who see’s it. He should have gotten rid of it, given it back to her or, like, lit it on fire. However, Greer says people often keep mementos from past relationships for the memories, so it’s not always a sign he’s not over his ex—but it could be. Have a chat about the reason he feels the need to hold onto these memories, says Greer.

7. HE’S STILL CLOSE WITH HER FAMILY.
Generally when you break up with someone, you stop hanging out with his or her family. But if he says he’s still tight with his ex’s parents—despite the fact that he “doesn’t talk to my ex at all.” We’re going to go ahead and get real: There’s probably part of him that hopes this keeps a connection between them. Though it is possible that he’s past his ex and just likes some of her family members, says Greer. Maybe it’s worth discussing as your relationship gets more serious.

The post 7 Things Guys Do When They’re Not Over Their Exes appeared first on Bigeye.ug.

By Our Reporter

Moments after graduation, when the tents are finally brought down and graduates are done partying, a lot of them are held in a quandary.

They wonder what they studied, why they studied it and how exactly it is going to help them in life. When you take a closer look, these are questions that one should ask as early as Senior One, yet a lot of Ugandans just go through school for mere ritualism and do courses at University, not because they are in line with their passion and desired career paths, but simply because it’s what their points could earn them.

It is against this backdrop that Education Concepts Limited organised The First Western Uganda Career Guidance Fair on Saturday, 11th of March 2017 at Ntare School in Mbarara. Under the theme “Shaping Career Decisions in the Context of Uganda’s Competitive Job Market”, The First Western Uganda Career Guidance Fair was attended by students from a spectrum of schools across the region.

Mrs. Amanda Ngabirano, one of the keynote speakers, addresses guests at the First Western Uganda Career Guidance Fair on Saturday.

The Fair kicked off with a Keynote Address from Mrs. Amanda Ngabirano, a Public Speaker, Makerere University Lecturer, Move Mobility National Representative and World Cycling Alliance African Representative, who set the pace for the day. Given that Amanda has previously spoken at the World Bank in Washington and in several major capitals of the world, students were eagerly waiting to hear from her and she didn’tdisappoint.

She was immediately followed by Mbarara University’s Solomon Agum, who gave a talk on choosing the right subject combinations and how that is primarily a crucial step in shaping one’s desired career path. Truthfully, a lot of students do combinations simply because they sound romantic or because they are perceived as being easy. Some stay away from certain combinations simply because they are not associated with hot girls and cool dudes, yet subject combinations are more important than just the stereotype perceptions attached to them.

It was then time for fun as schools entered a poetry, music and dance contest. Each school flaunted their best and winners were decided by mass appeal. This was much fun that it almost became impossible for the organisers to convince the students to go for lunch. You can trust students when it comes to having fun. They really never disappoint.

The afternoon session was kicked off by The Chwezi Code author Nicklison Twinamatsiko, who delivered a talk on the role of communication skills in career advancement.

Nicklison is an Engineer, Kyambogo University Lecturer and a regular contributor of articles to National newspapers and journals. His topic came in handy, given that a lot of graduates out there can barely communicate.

That was later to be followed by a practical session from Uganda Business and Technical Examinations Board (UBTEB) accredited institutions, which shared business and technical skills.

To the amusement of participating students, this team even made candles on location, using locally available inputs, clearly showing the students that they actually can start small businesses of their own.

Students from different schools in Western Uganda attended the First Western Uganda Career Guidance Fair

The First Western Uganda Career Guidance Fair then went into its final part dubbed “the round-table session” that involved dividing students into smaller groups and giving each group a facilitator from among the speakers and UBTEB team. These sessions were so intense that students practically didn’t want to leave.

In all, it can be said that such fairs are so much of necessity because it was clear that so many students were in the dark in as far as shaping career decisions is concerned.

Education Concepts is an Education Consultancy that creates unique practical concepts aimed at guiding teachers and students at all levels of the education system.

Singer Coco Finger has come out and refuted rumors claiming that he has been evicted from his home and is sleeping at a friend’s place. It was said that he had allegedly been thrown out over accrued rent arrears and a friend is now sheltering him at his home.

The singer told this website that, “I have a very fine home in Entebbe and that is where I stay. I have not defaulted rent anywhere because I don’t rent.”

The singer also told us that he will be releasing his latest video that was shot weeks back very soon. “It has been shot in several locations upcountry,” he noted.

The question, “Why don’t men listen?” continues to plague women of all ages. But, is it the man or the woman who’s the problem? Surprisingly, it’s both parties. Communication between a husband and wife is only strong when you know how to express yourself well. Here are six conversations men complain about according to marriage therapists:

1. “Yes, but…”

Agreeing with what your husband says only to rebuttal him with “but” completely dismisses his opinion. Using “but” both denies and patronizes your partner. Communication is only successful when both sides are willing to work together and not belittle one another.

Tip: Use “yes, and” instead. This invites collaboration and more effective communication.

2. “We need to talk”

This phrase often implies there is a problem. Men withdraw emotionally from this phrase because they may feel ashamed. Dr. Patricia Love, best-selling author of “How to Improve Your Marriage Without Talking About It” says talking about feelings soothes women, but makes men uncomfortable. “[Men’s] bodies flood with the stress hormone cortisol. There’s more blood flow to muscles. They get edgy, so women think they’re not listening,” Love said.

Tip: Using the pronoun “we” instead of “you” shows you are making a collaborative effort instead of playing the blame game. Also, save important conversations for the morning instead of the night. The quality of conversation will be higher when you’re both well-rested and coherent.

3. “Why don’t you do things for me like our neighbor does for his wife?”

Comparisons to ex or your friend’s husband only makes men feel insignificant and worthless. You wouldn’t like it if he compared you to supermodels in magazines or his friends’ wives.

Tip: Instead of unfairly comparing your man to others, build him up by pointing out the unique qualities he offers.

4. “I hate when you…”

There is a right way and a wrong way to criticize your spouse. Your spouse doesn’t like to hear you complain about what they’re doing wrong. Harsh words like “hate,” “always” and “never” can make matters 10 times worse.

Tip: Show appreciation for what he is doing right. Point out the way you love when he does something, and express your gratitude to your sweetheart.

5. “Remember when you made that mistake five years ago?”

Do your relationship a favor and keep the past in the past. Guys who are constantly being reminded of their mistakes will feel trapped and frustrated.

Tip: Keep conversations focused on what is happening now. Let go of the past, forgive him and move on.

6. “You shouldn’t have”

Denying your spouse the opportunity to spoil you every once in a while is hurtful. The thought he put into buying you a gift he knew you would love is a gesture of true love. By telling him he shouldn’t have gotten you anything, you are rejecting his gift and affection for you.

Tip: A simple “thank you” will show him how much you appreciate his gesture. If you have a problem with how much it cost or don’t like the gift, set some boundaries or guidelines of more meaningful things he could do for you in the future, but do so at a later time.

The post 6 Conversations men dread having with their partners appeared first on Bigeye.ug.

Who hasn’t heard the phrase “look but don’t touch”? You might have even heard this phrase among committed couples. But what these couples don’t understand is that looking become thoughts and thoughts become actions.

Love Counselor M. Gary Neuman wrote the book “The Truth About Cheating.” In his research Neuman interviewed 200 husbands who betrayed or never betrayed their spouse to find the true reason behind male infidelity. He found that 48 percent of men who cheated said that emotional dissatisfaction was the main reason for their infidelity- which may come as a surprise.

Betrayal does not happen overnight and it usually starts with wrong thoughts and friendships with other women. In the study, Neuman found that 40 percent of men who cheated found their mistress at work. They were usually women who respected and admired them. Only 6 percent actually slept with a woman he met that same day. Generally, men who cheated do not get carried away by just one conversation – betrayal is something that happens gradually.

Interestingly, 66 percent of the men who cheated confessed that they felt guilty during their love affair. What is even more impressive is that 68 percent of the men who betrayed their wife said they never imagined they would one day be unfaithful. And almost allof the men said they wished they had never cheated on their wife. So it’s not just the “bad men” who betray their wives; normal men caught up in these seven simple things cause them to entertain the idea of cheating on their wives:

1. He compares you to other women

He will compare his wife to the women he admires. The other women could be actresses, singers, famous people, mutual friends, work friends or even family members.

2. He asks you to change how you dress

He wants you to become the woman he is fantasizing about, so he asks you to change how you dress and how you put on makeup.

3. He looks at pornography

Pornography is the first step to betrayal. Many women think there is nothing wrong about viewing pornography alone or as a couple, but that’s not the case. Pornography causes your husband to fantasize about the actress and have wrong expectations about your sexual relationship with him.

4. He looks at other women on the street

He always makes a point of turning his neck to look at other women. It is common for men and women to look at attractive people, but looking is different from wishing to be with her. His obvious staring shows the interest he has in others and the lack of respect he has for you.

5. He wants you to know that you do not control him

He always makes it clear that you do not rule over him and that he can do whatever he wants. In a healthy relationship, no one is the boss – there is respect for both partners.

6. He follows many women on social media

You notice that he follows beautiful women online (and their photos aren’t exactly modest). He sure isn’t thinking about you when he looks at their pictures.

7. He seems to have more friends than you

He is always talking about friends from childhood, school and work. Remember: Neuman’s research showed that 40 percent of cheaters found their mistress at work. Close personal relationships with people of the opposite sex should be avoided.

“This never happens to me” is almost always a lie. Everyone has been in a bed with a boner that is just not cooperating at some point in their life. And that’s fine! Whether it’s a random off night or whiskey dick, failing to get or stay hard doesn’t have to turn into weird awkwardness. So stop freaking out, don’t blame yourself (it’s sooo not you), and just figure out a different way to have fun.

1. The Silken Slide

Be ready for whatever his junk decides to do by sitting on his lap and leaning back, so your head is hanging down toward the ground. He rubs your clit with his fingers and teases you with his penis — regardless of hardness. If his penis happens to gets into it, he can start jerking himself off too, or pull you up on his lap for seated cowgirl-style sex. Or not. Worst case scenario: you are still getting off.

2. The Wake Up Curl 

Take advantage of morning wood and his higher levels of testosterone with morning sex. Stick to basics—the more you switch positions, the higher chances of failure getting it back in. A side position is great— it shields morning breath, plus he can hold onto his dick for a tighter feel, giving himself extra strokes as needed. Curl forward so you can reach down and gently cup his balls for extra oomph.

3. The Couch Face Off 

If nerves or anxiety are factors in his boner troubles, tell him that vaginal intercourse is off limits all night. Tease the hell out of him as you please — a long shower with sexy soapy hands, back rub, whatever. The end game is leading him to the couch so you’re facing each other naked for a mutual wank. It’s hot to watch each other and super low pressure —100% of dudes consider themselves expert masturbators. (Practice makes perfect and all that.)

4. The Pointer Dog 

If a hard on is coming and going, try doggie style with your legs spread extra wide. If he loses his erection, there are options. He can pull out to stroke himself or he can continue thrusting with his finger on the underside of his penis acting as kind of a splint. If it’s still just not happening, have him hold his well-lubed penis against you and keep thrusting — a soft peen trailing across your clit can feel amaaaaazing.

5. Squat and Squeeze It 

There’s also the option of breaking out some accessories. First, he slips a cock ring around the base of his penis (even better: a vibrating one for you.) The ring should keep him engorged long enough for a decent toss, but he shouldn’t keep it on for over 30 minutes. Get on top, leaning down on your elbows so you can press yourself against the vibrations.

Vivo Energy Uganda has launched a motorbike rider campaign dubbed “Owa Boda Gwe Kapo”. The campaign unveils a wide offering for the rider at Shell service stations as well as a promotional and reward platform – the Shell Boda Club.

The Boda-Boda industry is a significant segment of the transport industry in Uganda, yet only a few organisations have developed targeted products for this community. Vivo Energy has respect and appreciation of all its customers, as demonstrated by this specialised offering for Boda-Boda riders.

Speaking at the Gwe Kapo campaign launch in Namirembe, Vivo Energy Marketing Manager Jean Mugisha said, “At Vivo Energy we take time to understand our customers and their needs and work hard to provide convenient solutions for them, that are accessible across the country at all our sites.”

Boda-Boda riders are key to the Ugandan economy as they move thousands of people daily and keep people and businesses mobile. Whilst they play this critical role, they don’t necessarily have speedy, convenient and accessible services.

Motorcyclists will get a free oil change at select service stations.

Mugisha further highlighted the rider offer at Shell: “Motorcyclists have dedicated fuelling points at selected service stations with high biker traffic, they can enjoy quick and free oil change services at 60 stations and we offer Shell Advance, an engine oil specifically designed for different types of bikes and riding styles to allow riders to get the most out of every ride.”

“Because the riders’ needs are not limited to oil and fuel, Vivo Energy has set up value added services to enrich the offer and meet all needs of the riders. The riders have access to cash change, whether they purchase or not at the Shell service stations. We are also excited to partner with key suppliers and providers of motorcycle related products and services. Simba Automotive has provided technical expertise and trained all our motorbike-dedicated mechanics; and ThinVoid, through its Tambula initiative, extends short term credit to riders.” she added.

Under the “Gwe Kapo” campaign Vivo Energy has also unveiled a reward and loyalty program called the Shell Boda Club, targeted at the Boda-Boda riders who use Shell Advance motor oils. Under the Shell Boda Club, registered members will get rewarded for using Shell Advance motorbike oil and servicing at Shell service stations with various prizes including helmets, free fuel, reflective jackets, t-shirts, key rings and brand new motorcycles.

To join the Shell Boda club, a rider should service at a Shell service station and be registered in the Shell Boda Club book. Each registered rider will also receive a Shell Boda Club card. With each service and purchase of Shell Advance motorbike oil, service record details will be indicated in the Shell Boda Club book and on the rider’s club card. Riders that purchase more stand a chance to win more.

The Shell Boda Club is a part of a bigger service offering to the Boda-Boda rider, under the Gwe Kapo campaign.

Hima Cement, Uganda’s leading manufacturer of quality cement brands has today announced sponsorship of the 2017 edition of the annual Captain’s Prize Golf Tournament.

The tournament that is slated for March 16 – 18, 2017 at the lush greens of the Kitante Golf Club is expected to attract over 250 participants; both amateur and professional golfers from the region.

Speaking at a press briefing, Charles Mugasa, the Hima Cement Marketing Director said that the tournament this year will be bigger owing to the number of golfers expected as well as the anticipated competition.

“Hima cement is proud to have been associated with the Captain’s Prize. Since 2002 when we first sponsored this tournament, we have seen tremendous growth in the game. I am happy to announce that Hima Cement is this year committing UGX70m into the tournament,” he stated.

Adding, “The caliber of golfers that have confirmed participation this year will make for an exciting tournament. We anticipate a great showing and fans of golf will be in for a treat.”

Charles Mugasa (L), the Hima Cement Marketing manager hands over a dummy cheque to Prof. Anthony Kerali, the Uganda Golf Club Captain.

The Professional golfers will tussle it out for a UGX10m prize kitty on March 16 – 17 whilst the amateurs will play on Saturday March 18, 2017 for a chance to win various prizes on offer.

“We have enjoyed 15 hugely successful years with the Uganda Golf Union and specifically the Captain’s Prize. Over the years, we have learnt vital lessons from the game of golf. We wish all the participants good luck and may the best golfer take the day,” said Mugasa.

The Hima Cement Captain’s Prize is one of local golf’s premier events and attracts both amateur and professional golfers from the entire region. It is hosted by the outgoing Captain of the club and this will be 15th consecutive year that Hima Cement is sponsoring the tournament.

Prof. Anthony Kerali, the Captain of the Uganda Golf Club lauded Hima Cement for its unrelenting support that has over the years helped elevate the profile of the game.

“We highly value our longstanding relationship with Hima Cement. With their support, we have managed to beautify the golf club. For instance the retaining wall at the water hazard on Hole Number four was built by Hima Cement products as well as the bridges around the course. There are so many things we have done together and we hope that this partnership will continue,” Kerali said.

Adding, “Many of us have used Hima products and know the quality. Incidentally, I am one of the few professors of Cement in this country. I studied a lot about cement while pursuing my PhD. So when I say Hima has good products, it is from an informed point of view.”

Hima Cement has a rich history of sponsoring sports in Uganda. The building solutions company currently sponsors Vipers Sports Club, Hima Cement Heathens Rugby Club and is also into kickboxing.

The cement maker is also into motorsport with rally ace Ambrose Byona, widely known by his moniker ‘Omunyetto’ in the driving seat.

High Definition (HD) Television has continued to gain ground in Uganda with over 60% of broadcasters turning to the technology, according to a new report by Eutelsat, a global provider of HD TV.

According to Michel Azibert, Commercial and Development Director at Eutelsat, Eutelsat satellites at 36° East that serve Africa and Russian markets clocked 14 additional HD channels over the last 12 months, rising to 114 HD channels.

In Africa, Uganda inclusive, MultiChoice Africa and Zap are in the vanguard of HD, broadcasting 16 and 17 channels respectively and underscoring the trend towards higher resolution in Africa’s TV market. The growth trend which has not only affected Uganda but the entire globe has seen locally NTV, NBS, Kwese Sport, BBS among others broadcasting in HD.

“2016 marked a tipping point for High Definition TV across our portfolio of video neighborhoods, culminating in a new landmark of 1,000 channels, many of which are exclusive to Eutelsat. We are fully equipped to accommodate this accelerating pace and to work closely with broadcasters as they transition to an enhanced viewing experience,” Mr. Azibert said recently as he announced the milestone.

The increase in HD TV has been attributed to the technological advancements in the devises (Television sets), and migration to digital broadcasting technology, from analogue technology.

According to the Uganda Communications Commission (UCC), in Uganda digital migration has enhanced the picture quality abilities which have enabled HDTVs to blossom. Additionally, the cost of HD television sets has also gone down. So these trends merged have seen HD TV blossomed.

“Seven (7) Pay Televisions are operational in the market, two of which broadcast using terrestrial, four use satellite and one broadcasts over cable. Four Pay TVs broadcast country wide,” reads the January – March 2016 UCC Report.

The milestone was attained following the launch of Eutelsat’s HOTBIRD neighborhood of CGTN HD, the news and current affairs channel of China’s CCTV media organization, marking its first venture into HDTV in Europe.

It all started when Davido announced in the morning of March 14, 2017 that he felt like giving away money. Mr Eazi saw his tweet and then asked for his help financially.

Since his fight with Lagos ‘big boy’ Hushpuppi ended, Davido has gone back to his lavish ways but this time he wanted other Nigerians to come and help him spend his money.

Taking to Twitter, Davido announced on Wednesday that he felt like giving money away. Of course, one expected immediate responses from regular Nigerians. What was unexpected was the quick response from popular musician Mr Eazi, seeking a share of the largesse.

U.S. President Donald Trump on Wednesday attacked a music video in which rapper Snoop Dogg points a fake gun at a clown-like Trump figure.

“Can you imagine what the outcry would be if @SnoopDogg, failing career and all, had aimed and fired the gun at President Obama? Jail time!,” Trump wrote on his Twitter account.

Snoop Dogg’s satirical video for “Lavender” makes references to issues including immigration and the police killings of unarmed black men, and features characters dressed as clowns including one called Ronald Klump.

Towards the end, the rapper points a fake handgun at the head of the Trump-like character and the replica weapon releases a flag saying “Bang.”

In an interview earlier this week with celebrity website TMZ, Trump’s personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, called the video “totally disgraceful” and said the musician owed Trump an apology.

“There is absolutely nothing funny about an assassination attempt on a president,” Cohen said. “I certainly would not have accepted it if it was President (Barack) Obama. I certainly don’t accept it as President Trump, and in all fairness, it’s not funny, it’s not artistic.”

The video has also drawn criticism from U.S. Republican Senators Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz.

Rubio, who has spoken of being a fan of hip hop music, said that because of America’s history of assassinations “anything like that is something people should be really careful about.”

“I think people can disagree on policy, but we’ve got to be careful about that kind of thing because the wrong person sees that and gets the wrong idea and you could have a real problem,” Rubio told TMZ.

The video, released on Sunday, was intended to address police violence, the incarceration of black people and Trump’s bid to impose a temporary ban on people entering the United States from several Muslim-majority countries.
