Trust me, there are also Kenyan investors who have transformed our minds (Ugandans).

I just came back from Uganda 🇺🇬 a few months ago after being away for more than 30 years. I was born in Uganda and there up to the age 16 years. I was visiting my maternal family in various parts of Uganda. I was blown away by the unlimited business opportunities in Uganda. But there is one ☝️ important point Amos mentioned and that is exposure. I always tell people that exposure is vital for the African youth. You do not necessarily need to travel outside Africa. You can travel within Africa and learn a lot.

That's amazing to know, thanks!!! I am planning a trip to Uganda. I'm exited! 😊 Will you move back home?

[@xsmail6462]

@@JustMeVanessa of course. Either to Ivory Coast 🇨🇮 or Uganda 🇺🇬. Vanessa, I’m half Ivorian and half Ugandan but live and work in the USA as a Civil Engineer. There is a lot of business opportunities in both countries particularly Uganda because Ivory Coast 🇨🇮 is very much advanced in terms of infrastructure. As an experienced Civil Engineer, I’m trying to figure out how I can set up business in East Africa particularly in Uganda. Africa is no longer what it used to be. People in Ghana and have businesses in Kenya 🇰🇪 or Tanzania 🇹🇿. I know someone who lives in Ivory Coast 🇨🇮 and has businesses in Kenya 🇰🇪 and Dubai. Wish me luck

[@juliusfoya6898]

Very inspiring story Mr. Wekesa. Always looking for stories like these, because the inspired me more and to be more determined to never look back at what I went through as a child growing in extreme poverty in Liberia, west Africa.i almost didn’t go to school. I was 11 years old when I started school but dropped out of school and the next time I sat in class again, I was 20 years old. Finally, entering 12 grade at age 25. With God on my side, I will never let my hands rest. Thanks so much Mr. Wekesa for inspiring me more. And thanks Wode for this interview. There is a God who cares. He will take care.

I knew he would say mindset, said it the same time he said it. Thank you Wode Maya for this series you are doing in Uganda. It is revealing and Africans can instead of travelling to Europe or Asia come and see what Uganda and other African countries have to offer. In terms of tourism and lifestyle. Australia because of the different ecosystems available are able to properly exploit it. By as the resort owner said offering tours how to harvest/use the ecu… tree and charge $100.
