Flavia Tumusiime is a woman that many Kampala men have wished to even have a two minute conversation with but never got the opportunity.
One lukcy man, her workmate, Andrew Kabura, will be walking her down the aisle come early next year according to sources.
Sports guru Andrew Kabura
We have been told that the two have been dating for sometime now with things getting in high gear for an introduction ceremony that will happen a few months from now.
The couple that have been to Fort Portal together on holiday and so many other places together have been seen at dinner dates around the city and sometimes Flavia has frequented Andrew’s home to check on him confirming that something is going on.
Capital FM’s Flavia Tumusiime
This after Flavia Tumusiime turned down JCole an American Hip Hop recording artiste and producer when he tried to make advances on her years back. A local musician, APass has harboured similar intentions for long but never got a chance to get to Flavia’s heart.
We are happy for the Capital FM and NTV Uganda presenter as well as her man.

Spark TV presenter, Faridah Nakazibwe, has shared what she knows about wealth with Slayqueens who are used to taking photos in expensive restaurants and big buildings to look rich.
Spark TV’s Faridah Nakazibwe
The TV presenter told slayqueens in a post that it is not about looking rich but actually working hard at it to become rich. Below is what she said.
I know a lot of people who take photos in fancy restaurants everyday or take selfies with new clothes everyday or in vehicle interiors everyday but don’t have money.
You can take as many selfies as you want in restaurant dinners or in front of tall buildings but that will not make you rich. Wealth is not built by sitting in restaurants all day. It is built by putting in the hard work to get your business off the ground or to produce products of high quality.
Same as Relationship , Relationship goals have nothing to do with taking selfies, hugging, holding hands or wearing matching clothes. Leave
Relationship goals are about being Honest, Loyal, Faithful and helping each other succeed in your goals, business, work and helping each other to get closer to God!
Back to wealth, the really successful entrepreneurs, the really rich people don’t post selfies with food ,money or pictures with new clothes everyday. The really successful entrepreneurs don’t have time for that childish stuff. The real hustlers are in their garages typing code, Kiseka market in the free market selling fruits, in class, acing that final exam. Quit flossing and become a real you. Work hard and Pray harder.

By Our Reporter
International jazz sensation Manu Dibango touched down at Entebbe International Airport on Saturday night. The Cameroonian artiste is slated to perform on Monday, April 30 at Isaiah Katumwa’s annual concert to commemorate International Jazz Day at the Kampala Serena Hotel.
It will be Dibango’s first time to perform in Uganda and he did not waste time in expressing how he was looking forward to the Johnnie Walker sponsored concert.
“I am happy to be here after the long wait. Jazz belongs to us and we belong to jazz. I want to give a good performance for everyone to enjoy,” said Dibango on being received at the airport.
The show will also pay tribute to the late Hugh Masekela, a fallen jazz legend branded the father of South African jazz who succumbed to prostate cancer in January. Masekela had also been part of the concert for the last two years and Katumwa hailed him as a perfect inspiration. Manu also performed with and respected Masekela. Katumwa and Manu will play a Masekela tribute song together.
“It will be interesting for us to mix our different flavours of jazz for the Ugandan audience,” Manu said.
At the airport, Manu was handed a gift, a Johnnie Walker 18 special blend bottle from Uganda Breweries’ Head of Luxury Portfolio, Annette Nakiyaga and he was glad to receive it.
“Jazz is a music genre for discerning individuals who love the finer things in life and Johnnie Walker is the whisky of choice for that class of people. Jazz and Johnnie Walker are a great blend and people attending the show will be in for a good time,” Nakiyaga said.
The jazz showpiece will be completed by South Africa`s Siphokazi Maraqana who arrived earlier in the country. The Afro-soul songstress has already claimed multiple international and local awards with plenty ahead in her career. Her traditional Xhosa rhythms and harmonies are expected to add spark on Monday night.

It comes as no surprise that Frank, a renown motivational speaker of Sisimuka Uganda, became furious with the pencil thin rapper for releasing a song with strong undertones about his baby gal Sheila Gashumba.
According to a source close to Frank, the diss track called “Bad Segu” that is believed to be a direct diss track for Sheila Gashumba who’s apparently rumored to be Fik’s ‘property’, made the motivational speaker very annoyed to the extent that he sent a long angry message for Feffe’s management who have not yet responded.
In the song, Fefe venomously belittles Sheila as he goes on to describe a nasty yet young Instagram girl who’s always up for whoever is on top of the entertainment scene, doesn’t protect her self and lives a lavish life.
