  • Maternity Ward at Mulago Hospital in Kampala.  Head of OB/GYN was taught by Jotham Musinguzi who became head of Population and Development Dept. for the government.  Jotham recently retired because he did not agree with the current president Yoweri Kaguta Museveni. Museveni has a military background and just wants to get BOOTS ON THE GROUND. Jotham said he wants to bump Uganda's population up to 60M before he even starts to worry about infrastructure for all these people. Uganda is about 30M now.  About half of Uganda's population is under 15 and life expectancy is about 50.  Population has doubled from 1990 to now.

  • Ugandan men use a fire setting system for breaking rock in the Kireka area just outside Kampala.  Most all of these folks are from Gulu in the north. Insecurity with the LRA made them move south and accept jobs that are basically breaking rocks so gravel can be used in construction materials.

  • Bobi Wine could be the next president of Uganda. He appeals to the younger population of Uganda as a rapper, but he also has political ambitions. He is Museveni's biggest threat and has suffered because of that.

  • This is the Kireka area just outside Kampala, Uganda.  Most all of these laborers are from Gulu in the north... insecurity with LRA made them move south and accept jobs that are basically breaking rocks so the gravel can be used for construction materials.  The mothers in these families make about 50 cents a day breaking the rocks their husbands haul out of the quarries.
