We have said bye to the last of the ba-summer. For the uninitiated readers, ba-summer are Ugandans working abroad who come home for Christmas holidays, and spend a month or two before returning to cold Europe and America.

Unfortunately, some of them will not be visiting the country anytime soon. And no, it is not that they are so old to manage another journey back here. On the contrary, those who have vowed not to return here are quite young. They are just too disappointed and don’t want to hear the name Uganda again.
