Uganda's conversations - January 13

Jan 13, 2020

Wondering what's trending on social media right now? Here are the top trending topics in Uganda.

1. Imam

Predictably Muhamed Mutumba, the Imam of Kyampisi Mosque in Kayunga district, who had gone to the Police station to bail out his ‘wife' was shocked when the Police told him that ‘she' was a man, dominates the online chatter. His ordeal is far from over because he has now been suspended over the incident.

2. Arrogance

If you are stumped by this at first, don't feel embarrassed. We were too. Makerere Impis have a new kit and they have decided to take over social media. We'll admit one thing though...the kit is fire. Just don't ask any Impis fan the result of Saturday's match against reigning champions Heathens.

Y'all not ready for this kinda drip😍😍 sikyo @Mongersfc ?#ARROGANCE💚💚 pic.twitter.com/EUti3ukUll

3. Leave

The Queen will host crisis talks at an unprecedented royal summit at Sandringham on Monday, with implications not just for the future of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, but for other members of the royal family. The crunch meeting at the Queen's Norfolk estate comes after five days of turmoil amid claims that the Sussexes feel "driven out" of the royal family. It will be the first face-to-face meeting between members of the royal family since Harry and Meghan dropped their bombshell on Wednesday. The couple wish to split their time between the UK and North America, to become financially independent and to be allowed to earn an income without royal constraints.
