Jajja Iculi:
Iculi was a jolly and humorous blogger who had build his diehard followers thanks to his daily morning Facebook broadcasts. Many YouTubers, media houses were relying on him for interviews.
Since returning from Sweden with just 500/- after 35 years of hard work, Iculi decided to settle and turned blogging into a daily job. He also doubles as a professional painter with his company, Kombak Construction.
Due to his outspoken ability, Iculi created a lot of friends and enemies especially those opposing the government.
Sometimes the opposition would concur with him especially when he bashed the government and its officials; case in point – Extortion at Entebbe International Airport.
Ugandans in and outside the country will greatly miss him.
May Jajja Iculi’s soul RIP.
