If you think you are about to know the father to Baby Taj, think harder. According to sources, Juliana Kanyomozi is keeping Baby Taj’s Father a top secret.
There are only three people in Uganda who know Baby Taj’s Father. “It is only Juliana, the sister and the mother. No body else knows. Not even us who are close to her”Adyeeri, a cousin to Juliana told us.
But to save all Ugandans from the anxiety of looking up and down for the name of Taata Taj, Juliana K says she will be unveiling the father. There is only one condition; a cure for COVID-19 should have been found and declared so by WHO.
“It sounds like a joke, but that’s what she told us when we tried to pause that question. She insisted that we should first handle more important problems before we waste time trying to find out about Taj’s Father,” Adyeeri narrated.
So for now, let the researchers save the country….unveil that cure.

With the country under lockdown following global breakout of the novel Coronavirus, it is no longer business as usual. Individuals and companies are actively adapting to the new normal and finding creative ways to keep engaged with their audiences.
Affirmative Art, a platform created to help young people achieve their dreams, has taken to webinars to empower young Ugandans on the internet amid the lockdown.
Through interactive workshops held online, they encourage individuals to share their experiences, equip them with life skills and also inspire them to take action so as to achieve their dreams.
The live sessions which are being conducted every Monday, Wednesday and Friday on different platforms including Facebook and YouTube are benefiting dozens of young Ugandans who always tune in, giving them a productive way to spend their time while they stay at home.
“An Affirmative Art session will enhance core human mental abilities. You will acquire skills to help you to focus, see new patterns, imagine, be creative, and empathically understand your dreams, and to come to deep insights. If you don’t find this amazing you have a missing sense of wonder. Which, by the way, is something ART definitely can bring back, too.” Explains Byaruhanga Arnold, the East Africa Coordinator at Affirmative Art.
Affirmative Art was founded by Eirik Jarl Trondsen in 2012 after he realized art could be a powerful tool for development by helping individuals identify their goals and visions in life, given art is a universal language, and does not require literacy.
Affirmative Art is achieving their mission by conducting tours across the globe. In their most recent tour which was held in December 2019, a team from Affirmative Art visited different countries in East Africa including Congo, Rwanda, Uganda and Kenya. They conducted sessions at universities, institutions, secondary schools, and galleries among others where an estimated 2500 people were empowered to understand their dreams while using art.

Today, another lady showed up accusing Brian White of sexual harassment. Vivian Mutanda is that lady. She accuses Brian White of sexual slavery, aborting three of his pregnancies. There’s one constant in this story, a one Edison Kirabira and the sex for money. But here’s the story behind the story.
It is clear
there’s a mafia on slaughter on Brian White. We’ve learned that his opponents
have transpired to see his downfall. According to our sources, the fight is on
having the President’s attention. The only way to get that attention is to
throw one’s opponents out of the way.
We’ve
learned that several girls who used to work under the foundation have been paid
to tarnish Brian’s name. The first of girls to be bought off is Stella
Nandawula and Vivian Mutanda. They have all been trained on what to say and how
to bring it via the emotions angle.
“President
Museveni is a women’s rights activist. They know that soon the intelligence will
share the testimonies of these girls with him. That will be the final write-off
for Brian White. He will be sent to jail and will have lost all the sympathy
left,” our source tells us.
The
meetings to blackmail Brian White have been sitting in some place in Ntinda.
The two girls’ stories cannot be corroborated, one can notice deep holes in the
stories. We can confirm that the girls are known sex escorts in Kampala. “Both
of these girls work as sex escorts. Before working full time for Brian White,
they were working as mobile masseuse and sex escorts. That’s when Edison
Kirabira connected them to a more sustainable deal.”
We can
confirm that the next thing will be for Brian White to be picked up from home
and taken to jail. The lawyers have already been aligned and it will be a court
case that will be lost. “Yes, the whole system has been setup, if Brian White
survives this trap, then he will leave to thank his gods. It’s almost impossible
that he will jump out of this trap. Either this week or next week, Brian White
will be arrested. If I were him, I would get my lawyers and PR people to begin
working. They are working with gossip shows now such as Uncut and Livewire. All
these presenters have been paid off. After that, the mafias will then go full scale
with newspaper headlines, then an investigative documentary will be released to
show everything that has happened,” says our source.
At
BigEye.ug we can confirm that indeed there’s a battle to take Brian White to
his downfall. “Imagine right now they are talking to feminist organizations
other human rights organizations. They know the emotions involved in rape and
sexual slavery cases. Women’s tears have a way of softening the hardest of
hours. The earlier Brian White come out with a full-scale PR plan, the better,”
this source tells us.

As the world for the first time ever celebrates the World Whisky Day virtually, Uganda Breweries Limited (UBL) through the Johnnie Walker brand is partnering with the NTV dance party to spice up the fun in everyone’s living room on this special day.
The World Whisky Day is an annual event celebrated by whisky lovers world over on the third Saturday of May.
The World Whiskey day dance party will kick off at exactly 10pm on NTV.
Meanwhile, as the whisky lovers worldwide celebrate their day, UBL has also made the social distancing more exciting by gifting the Johnnie Walker enthusiasts with their luxurious Gold Label.
Some of the people who received this prestigious reserve drink include media personalities, entertainers and socialites such as Patrick Salvado, Ruth Kalibala, and Gareth Onyango, among others.
MTN Uganda and its partner, Salaam Foundation have donated food packages to the Luzira Maximum Prisons inmates in a Ramadan drive that has seen them deliver similar packages to various vulnerable Muslim communities in Kampala and neighboring areas. This drive underscores the long-standing relationship between MTN Uganda and the Muslim community.
The food packages delivered to the inmates had rice, sugar, milk, cooking oil, maize flour, soap, tomatoes and onions. These food items are meant to help the Muslim inmates as they break their fast during this holy period of Ramadan.
Ismail Hamwada MTN’s Manager, Workforce planning said that it is only proper that people fasting have proper Iftar.
“It is the second time we are donating to Luzira prison during Ramadan. This is MTN’s way of celebrating with the Muslim faithfuls as they observe the holy month of fasting. We recently delivered similar consignment to Uganda police because of the good relationship with the security organs in the country.” Hamwada said.
On behalf of the Regional Prisons Commander, Ms. Akirapa Dinah Martha the senior rehabilitation and reintegration officer thanked MTN and its partner, Salaam Foundation for choosing prisons as one of their Ramadan beneficiaries.
“It is rare for people to think about people behind bars and we thank you for keeping the inmates in your thoughts especially during this Ramadan season,” Akirapa said.
Sheikh Muhammad Mulajje, the Cheif Imaam at the Luzira prisons mosque thanked MTN for the donation and prayed a blessing over the company for remembering the inmates.
Worth noting is that this year’s Ramadan has come at a time when the country is locked down due to the Covid19 pandemic that has made it hard for inmates to receive Iftar packages from their loved ones as movement is restricted. Therefore, the move by MTN and Salaam Foundation will go a long way in helping the Luzira Maximum prisons inmates that are observing the holy month through fasting.
On 11th Monday, the Katikirro of Buganda, Charles Peter Mayiga had a press conference to mark his 7th year as the Prime Minister of Buganda. On the same event, he told the press about a book that he was soon to launch and unveiled some of the achievements of his seventh year.
Yet, behind the press conference was a coded message. It was the Katikirro’s farewell speech. We can now reliably confirm that as soon as the Lockdown is fully lifted, the Kabaka will unveil a new Katikirro.
According to our sources, the Katikirro had planned to use the press conference to prempt the news of his replacement. “He had not planned to mark his 7th anniversary. But he felt it best to set the record straight on his achievements before his replacement is announced. He has not had it easy. There have been many unfriendly forces,” Mugwanya tells us.
Mugwanya continues; “one of the things the Katikirro did was to streamline processes. He put in place things such as approval matrix. He formalized the procurement process at the Kingdom. By doing this, he earned himself many enemies. Take an example of the Majestic brands, it meant that to work with the Kingdom, you had specific targets and deliverables. This did not go well with many people. Many were selling off land in the Kingdom without following process, Katikirro made it practically impossible for all this to continue.”
As such, Katikirro told the press that although the journey had not been easy, there were some things to celebrate. He talked of Masengere for example. But he could not explain the flattening of Ngule as the Kingdom beer brand.
But his body language was revealing. It revealed a hurting man, hurting, angered, betrayed and feeling like his reign had been nipped short in the bud. He took swipes at some of his public enemies, Tamale Mirundi and Frank Gashumba.
He described Mirundi as a drunkard and Gashumba as a conman. Only a man on his way out could afford to go bareknuckle. We can confirm that Mayiga has begun delagating most of his duties as he prepares to handover. “He tried to ask for an extension. But the Kabaka thinks it is time for a fresh pair of gloves. His replacement is equally young though less charming. Kabaka thinks after seven years, there is not so much someone can turn around. Katikirro will be remembered for etoffali and kyapa mu ngalo,” Mugwanya opines.
The Central Government will have Katikirro to thank for a fonder relationship between Buganda and the NRM government. It is these ties that he fought hard to mend. A part of him realized that he could win more through friendship than having rifts. Yet never before had many people dared to attack the institution of Buganda than in his time. “Remember when Sheikh Muzaata took him on. Remember when many poor Baganda defied the kyapa mu Ngalo. At some point Mayiga’s problem was shooting beyond his reach. He had to temper his ambitions. He tried to catch more than he could handle. It is this humility that was lacking. He saw himself as Mr. Superman, Iron Man. He thought past Katikirros were docile. He did not bother to learn from them but little did he know that Buganda was not built in one day. We cannot say that he failed to try, let us say he tried and failed.”
It will be the end of a reign for a man who came in seven years ago. The youth in Buganda will miss him. But eventually even the best of dancers exits. To some, Mayiga had become as big as the institution he represented. That has a way of getting into people’s heads. It was his undoing. Over-ambition flared with over confidence.

While we are all locked down, Ugandans were shocked by Martha Mukisa, a songwriter and a vocalist. Mukisa who is a new artiste has taken social media by storm but our efforts to trace the management behind her career were futile as most sources haven’t yet established the team behind the singer.
With her latest song titled Ssebo, the singer could be heading for the stars if she maintains the style and also keep consistency in releasing music. More details about the singer will be revealed as soon as they are established.
