Our Heritage: The Kanyorozi subclan
Last Sunday I received a call from Abel Mwine, my cousin, and he said he was at home in Kawempe with aunt Milly to visit Kaaka (grandma). I had been there and seen Kaaka myself the previous Sunday and she looked a bit old. So we agreed to meet again when everyone is not so busy and chat, its been long...

Traditionally, Africans pass on an oral tradition, linking generations through the epochs of time - the past & the future.
