Munyenga in love with Jesus

Winnie Munyenga, is a local artiste who came to the limelight in 2004 with her album, titled Saasira.  She talked to Moses Jjagwe about her love  life

 

I am a daughter of veteran musicians Martin Munyenga and Monica Asaaba (R.I.P).

I am the third-born in the family of seven.

 

I was born and raised in Bulange, Mengo. I attended Namirembe Infant’s School and  Mengo Primary School, before joining Stella Maris College Nsuube for O’level and Progressive SS, Bweyogerere for A’level. Later, I joined Makerere University, where I did a course in music, dance and drama.

 

I loved music right from childhood and I was very active in school and church choirs. After school, I joined Badindaz Band of the late Tony Sengo and Kads Band. But I started singing professionally in 2004, when I released my maiden album, Saasira.

Yes, I am married with two boys, Marcus Paul Gasuza, 9, and Darren Tagayala, 4.

 

We met at Progressive S.S Bweyogerere. He had come with a friend to see someone else on visitation day, but his friend happened to know me. That is how we met.

 

He was quite patient with me, unlike most men who want to rush you into bed. This showed me that he was not after anything, but love.

 

After a few years in marriage, some people change. How do you find your husband?

He is so caring and loving and pampers me a lot. 

 

We usually go for holidays for just the two of us and talk about our pressing issues. 

When my husband returned from kyeyo in Japan. We had spent almost two years apart and the reunion was memorable.

 

One day, I checked his phone and found a message from a woman that I did not like, but we talked about it and sorted it out. 

The day I gave birth to my first-born, Marcus. I was so excited that I even forgot about the labour pains. I did not really experience them because I was eagerly waiting for my baby.

 

When I lost my mother on November 9, 1998.

 

Accepting Christ as my saviour. This is the wisest decision I have ever made. It feels great being in love with God. I really love Him and I am very happy. Give it a try and you will never turn back. 

  

When I am not happy with you, I will tell you, regardless of how you will take it. 

 

My family. I love my family so much that I always try to keep in touch with each and everyone.

 

Matooke and chicken. If there is no matooke in my house, then there is no food. 

 

To become a very important person and change people’s lives. I love to see happy people.
