"I do not know whether it’s because of our history"

"Most Ugandans have a lot of low self-esteem, they feel ashamed of themselves."

"Adults learn when they want to learn."

"80 percent of adult learning is on their own, so they compare what you are telling them with what they already know."

"You engage intellectually and through experience."

"It’s fun but also very taxing."

"Circumstances usually make women."

"If their marriage is not working or they have an issue with their sexuality, they feel so down trodden and nothing."

"You need to hook up with people who have some strength in this area and start walking a deliberate path."

"In our first year of marriage, my husband organised a surprise birthday party and bought me an expensive watch. *He wrapped it in many things and he made me look for it. I was like this man actually loves me."

"I believe that life is for living, don’t live with regret."

"If you feel something, do something about it. Don’t make yourself a victim, be a victor."

"Be focused. Life is a journey and I am a traveler."

"I have my personal roadmap and I have a destination."

"I shouldn’t try to go to other people’s roads but stick to mine."

"2001 Km in the city total coverage. About 30% is already tarmacked."

"That tells you that there are already two thirds that need tarmacking."

"If we are going to tarmac 70km, it leaves a gap and that is a funding gap but everything can be done in one financial year."

"We are saying we need more funding and the government is supporting us."

"When we procure contractors, they sign agreements and this includes how they should work, when they should be paid, what is the period after work is finished that they should continue taking care of the roads."

"It is maybe something that we need to look more into where the roads are not lasting the timeline that we expected them to last but ideally, they should last 15 years ,20 years."

"It will bring much needed relief."

"If you think of a road like Salaama Road."

"One of the outcries in the city has been Salaama Road and then the whole area of the industrial area."

"All these roads are going to be done."

"This will help to improve the business environment, easing movements."

"It will bring a lot of ease in the city apart from time. *It will also take away dust which affects most people’s businesses."

"When money is spent and not spent well, that is something to worry about."

"If a road which is supposed to last 20 years and within a very short time you see is already breaking down, that should worry any administrator."

"Those are things that we are set to look into."
