Ernest Tashobya Katwesigye, PhD (Christian Education)

Uganda is one of the least developed countries today. It has a Human Development Index of 0.516 against the Sub - Saharan Africa index of 0.523 and a world index of 0.717 (UNDP, 2020).   Its GDP in 2018 was only USD 724!

With waters still

And the morning breeze

Love is born
