Uganda’s Parliament is no stranger to heated debates, but on this memorable day, words turned to fists in a fiery spectacle. Hon. Anthony Akol, known for his “no-nonsense” approach, made headlines once again by turning Parliament into a boxing ring. The scene unfolded in front of the shocked yet unsurprised Hon. Speaker Anita Among, who quickly found herself the main witness of the scuffle before her security team ushered her out to safety. The drama kicked off when Hon. Zaake, in a curious display of audacity, approached Hon. Akol, supposedly “checking for a gun.” Whether he was truly concerned about security or simply looking to provoke, one thing became crystal clear: Hon. Akol wasn’t having it. Akol, perhaps recalling his previous altercation with former MP Hon. Odonga Otto, took swift action. He landed punches that echoed through the chamber, catching everyone’s attention and sparking a chorus of gasps. Despite the serious nature of parliamentary business, these MPs seem to have c...

If you didn’t make it to Bapa Hotel last weekend for the All-White Luxury Brunch , let me break it to you gently: you didn’t just miss a brunch — you missed a cultural moment. Hosted by the impossibly stylish Trona , alongside Kash , MC Lucky , the Podium DJz , and crowd-charger MC Young Money , this wasn’t your typical “eggs and coffee” affair. This was brunch with a capital B — a collision of fashion, music, and unbothered elegance under the Northern Uganda sun. White Hot, All Day The Bar “All White” as a theme might feel familiar — but in Gulu , it’s an unspoken runway challenge. Flowing maxi dresses, tailored double-breasted suits , pearl-embellished sneakers , gold accents catching the light… the city turned up in their best interpretations of summer whites. Even Lewis Fashionz broke the internet with a full white kanzu that made traditional wear look like it belonged on the Met Gala carpet. And when the afternoon sun lit up Bapa’s garden, every photo snapped looked like ...

And now, the whispers have finally turned into headlines: Trona — yes, the Trona of Bapa Hotel fame — is four months pregnant! They say love always finds a stage, and for Trona, it started under the golden lights of Bapa Hotel — the same place she built her influencer crown. That unforgettable night when a Kampala-based influencer knelt down with a ring and roses? Oh, Gulu stood still. Phones were up, reels went viral, and hashtags multiplied like heart emojis. But what if that fairytale night wasn’t the final chapter — just the prologue to something messier, juicier, and far more real? Because word on the city’s wireless grapevine is that this baby bump might have another storyline entirely. 👀 A few eagle-eyed fans noticed her quiet shifts — the late-night studio c...
