5 Things That Will SHOCK You in Kampala, Uganda 

Follow me on Instagram: instagram.com/willie.fungo/

Americans get culture shock in every country. They are always surprised it’s not like the US. Then they think it should be like the US

Of course, Uganda’s are very very friendly people By my visit I loved 🥰 them so much.

If you learn how to drive in Uganda, you can drive anywhere in the world.

As a Ugandan... Everything here is beyond truth😊 thank you!!!

When I hear Uganda, I think good weather, charming happy people and great food.

Wow! Very good information. Really awesome how you contrast the social attitudes of different regions.

Gulu City!!!🎉❤...Rep My City!! Brother you have 100% NAILED the relationship scene in Uganda. You are a true international hero for this truth and honesty. Im a Black American brother just like you, and I think that my attitude has shocked more women here than I have been suprised by them.They have failed to understand that the money is earned and controlled by the man, get the man then you get the money, I think local guys in their thirst for an encounter and not a relationship, have been confusing then backwardly.👊🏾🙏🏾. Keep dropping this great work!

You are very objective in your descriptions of Uganda and Ugandan. For examples Mbarara and Gulu city, beautiful. The business in Kampala is incomprehensible

I would love this type of video for Kenya and Rwanda.

Excellent video, can't wait to go back and visit UG again

My friend, your observations about the East and Southern parts of the Continent is apt and to the point!

I love the honesty of these videos. You're not afraid to talk about the things you don't like as well. Most travel vloggers only want to say good things.

u 100% got all aspects of Ugandan life. I live in Kenya and so many things are similar so I can tell what you say is true. One thing I can precise - the relationship between men and women. In east Africa (or maybe all Africa) the man is the provider. So women first check up how good he is as a provider and that could be looking to us that this is heartless. Second so many have been abused by men in their childhood so that it is difficult to them to have a trustful or even affectionate relationship. It takes a lot of time to build up the trust. That's why young girls say They have given up on love or trust. Once you are their partner they will think you belong to them and they will defend you like an object/belonging. So what you will think is mistrust is just the measures they will take so you can't be stolen. And yes they have as many option and alternatives as you have. They do same thing as you - you will talk to 40 other women, so is she and not because of you just because they have so many options as well. But this part you describe very well. But Ugandan women are more submissive then Kenyans.

From the start of your video I can tell you had the wrong tour guide bro!

Correction Uganda staple food is not matooke(plantain) it's actually differs by region but the most consumed food is posho(ugali), millet bread (kalo) and matooke.

Nice clip thanks for showing us , the real Africa

Magnificent 👍

He says like in US like everything is the same when their are 11 different accents , 3 different time zone , 5 different regions . Going to another state is like going to another country you can’t generalize it by saying like in the US . New York is nothing like the south and it’s nothing like the west and is nothing like the Midwest , etc .

Correction: Jinja is considered to be in the East. They even speak Lusoga which sounds kinda like Luganda but very different

Good content as usual Willie 💪🏿

excellent insights. Thanks

Amazing and beautiful people and culture. Your videos are evolving quickly. You are truly an artist and professional. You inspire me brother. Thanks❤

All of your video's , are very informative , I enjoy your work...!!

Wow, great video. Happy people always 🥰🥰🥰

Great content brotha

Great video and very spot on..

I have been to Uganda four times and I must say that your analysis was spot on in regards to all the points you touched . Your presentation was very balanced and well thought out.

Amazing video 🎉.

Really enjoy your content.

I love your investigative and unbiased style! I learned a lot. You deserve more subs.

Willie, one thing I want to say though, my first African girlfriend was Uganda, it was forbidden for her to have sex before marriage, she went to the UK. and was held hostage and raped for about 6 months and she tried to kill herself 4 times, nit because of the horrifying and debilitating mental and emotional distress the rape did to her, but because she lost her virginity, it was their tribes prize and most coveted honor in giving their daughters to a husband, because her bride price is extremely high, and now that she is no longer a virgin, she believed that she lost everything, he called me weeping, and although I tried to encourage her, she still tried one more time to kill herself after we spoke on the phone, so I can say, these things are not true for all of Uganda; as there are always the exception.

Great video

thank u for the video. T

Why are people mad cause this guy is speaking the truth it’s a shame people don’t live in reality

True analysis of our country

Right. I think the report has some balanced regional representation , portraying people of different walks of life in Uganda!

U told the naked truth......roads are bad in kampala

Beautiful people ❤

Thanks for your videos i am frm Jamaica🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲 i be visitin Uganda sometime next year so i will be using your videos as a Guide😊

Your channel is superior with the depth of interviews and thoughtful questions with follow up.

Great 👍 qualitey video

Thank bro, for visiting my country

Oh I know Nwaya he is like a brother to me... A good videographer and film maker.....

Very educative.

I doubt about east African women having baggage more than the USA women, body count very much differ, extremely.

"How the African men interact with each other " you nailed it.

I think its good started socio-economic understanding to begun.thanks

As an American kiving in ugabda for almost 7 yrs now, I love it. We cjoose to reside here 8/9 months of the year and spend the rest of the year back home in the states

I love Uganda and people came up to me and spoke luganda to me😅 . I was constantly asked what tribe im from (Igbo/hausa) Nigerian. Even though im first gen. I was still treated nice. Probably because of my son who is biracial 😂.

Really astonish

Great video man. In terms of relationships, its exactly like west Africa. I have always hated the transactional nature of relationships in Africa. They deeply believe it's a man's job to take care of a woman's every need.

Correction about what you said of San Francisco compared to Mbarara, SF looks somber and sad, the streets in Mbarara look lively and bustling with commerce...

Good Job Willie. Next time make videos from Tanzania.

Willie fungo the legend 👌

Thsnk you for this video. I am a black female born in the Carribbean and who lived in America and Canada. I have many females African i know, but nkt friends. When i hear how they manage men, two, three men at the same time, i feel like i just born. I feel like a baby. I never done ehat those women are doing. What borther me, is when men in America are putting women down snc raising those women overseas thinking that they are better.

Excellent and insightful video, again, Willie. 🔥 Keep up the good 'journalistic' type work.

Great observation and research bro on point 👌

I agree. I was moved to give my rented house to give to a white even though I was a black foreigner and had more money then the white. I played it down as if I did not whey they decided to move me. Some days I will go back and let them know that I knew what they did.

I'm out of words to say but WOW, Great Content always.....Thank you

Once online i had one beautiful woman from Uganda. She was loyal nice and good. Just once she started asking money i sent then she was offline for always. I still wish one fijn there but his to trust?

If you’re black you’re just another local. Until they see your money😂

Accent matters especially here in Kampala, and you will get some special treatment especially if it's either a British or American accent, be it at the markets, malls, or nightlife....once they recognise a strong accent they will decide how to treat you depending on the situation. It can either be in a good way or a bad way though not in a way that physically hurts. For example, charging you a higher price for an item or service than the usual market rate.

Underdevelopment Central region is strategic. Kinda like how US government will underdevelop certain parts of the country

Thank you for the content in this video! As a white tourist who has traveled to Uganda twice, I thought that everyone was so friendly. I literally think that the friendliest people I've ever met are in Uganda and two other countries. I never thought this was because of what you mentioned in the video. This is why I follow different creators from different backgrounds, perspectives, cultures, and ethnicities. I only get to see my perspective when I travel, and it's important to get the perspective of others so I don't live in this little bubble.

Is there a single place on Planet Earth where we are not collectively confused and thus not living up to our collective potential? If there is such a place, please list/name that country.

so this video is to bash east africa? ok.

Great video and subject but a lot of generalisation. Your experience is not necessarily what applies to the majority of cases like you're portraying it to be. How long have you lived in Uganda again?

Very accurate Ugandans love foreigners, and this is mistaken for general friendliness.

Where can i find the original video for the ladies dancing at 9:15 ? 😂

You know that the roads are bad when you think the moon has smaller number of craters than the pot holes in the road

It’s funny, a friend grew up in Uganda. His Father was in the British Army. IDI Amin was a private in the unit. IDI rose to sergeant, mainly because he was the Army boxing champion. My friend recounted seeing IDI riding a bicycle, passing an officer, falling off while trying to salute. Then, my friends father retired and stayed in Uganda as a Bus Company owner, my friend witnessed the rise and fall of IDI, he told me the rumours of IDI eating parts of his dead enemies were true, when he fled they found frozen human parts in his freezers!

Men !, the way you describe the roads there in Uganda, it is identical to the roads here all over Mexico...!!!

Speaking of bad roads, disorganized capital, that’s all about corruption. Ugandan government is one of the most corrupt in the region. As for relationships, that’s complicated for most of human beings. Even the wealthiest Americans can’t do anything about it. Thanks for the research though Yes BAGANDA!

If you don't know I was born in Uganda was my it was my home place I miss you so much right now I'm crying😭

"Movies, dreams and my imagination."😅😅😅

Nilotic and Bantu are created by the colonisers. Africans are one but were divided cuz of Whiteman during colonial. This mindset we needed to clean it from our colonisers mentality.

U need to visit the whole of Uganda there are good better roads. Also kampala has the downtown which is too busy but up town is so clean and also the roads are good.

Nyash

Nice very interesting. Africa has the largest population of young men under 40. So having many boyfriends is the opportunity the women have although the men get disappointed. Here in USA we have in many states 9 women for every bachelor male. So we very seldom have Uganda’s opportunities to get that opportunity or advantage. Every country has it’s opportunities. Look at Ghanaian men with the many beach groupies of elderly European seniors plotting their vacations to grab up a young male for entertainment in the resorts their culture built for them to enjoy both worlds luxurious sleeping quarters to get the money of the adventurous seekers of a compassion, a beach . Rock on . .

I LOVE THIS COUNTRY. I would not dream of living anywhere else.

Respect ba u shud know Africa,I wish I can show you the real Uganda, GHETTO LIFE

when i hear UGANDA my first thought is the nyash

I think we need to dig a little deeper into Ugandan history to understand the various cultural abnormalities you pointed out. Ugandans edifying the Bazungu goes back to colonial times. As the guy in the video said, it goes way back. Wherever the Bazungu went, the British in the case of Uganda, made sure the "native understood who was the Boss and superior. Even the Anglicans and Catholic clergy emphasized that 'hierarchy'. It wasn't until after Independence that there were "native" Bishops in the church. I must point out that this legacy is not common on in Uganda but around the world wherever the Bazungu set foot. I have gone to school and worked with brilliant Asians who cannot look the Bazungu in the eye. Just like the Africans, Asians were under the same colonial masters. In the USA, some black people still cannot look whites in the eye. In my church, we hold a "right of passage training to empower the children to look people in the eye when they speak instead of looking down at their feet. This is kind of confusing for the children because within the black culture (USA and Africa) children who look adults in the eye are scolded for being impudent. Yes, Mbarara looks nice but remember that is M7's home town and he has been in power for almost 40 years. When Obote was in power, the roads to his hometown in northern Uganda were well taken care of. I don't know for sure but I am sure Idi Amin did the same for West Nile. Kampala's road situation is critical but the roads in and around Kampala are narrow because of what is called "the milo land system", a contract established in 1900 between the British and the Kabaka. Thus, in Buganda, where Kampala is located, all land belongs to the Kabaka of Buganda. Lastly, about the Ugandan women's transactional love, I don't think it is limited to Uganda. I know old white women who travel to the Caribbean basin to buy some love from young studs. In the USA, it is no longer a surprise to see an 80-year-old man with a 30-year-old woman. The point is the more you travel it is de ja vous all over again.

This is a misreprentation of Ugandan women. Your selection sample is too small. Sad...

I love Uganda and i love my president Idd Amin Dada Allahumah igfiLlahu yarahamhu

Willie I love the channel and I was one of the first 70 subscribers, but I am sad that you refuse to show Wakanda or Zamunda, if you came to the former United States and only showed Detroit and not say colonial Williamsburg then people wrongly assume that all places are the same and that is not so my friend. One day when I win the lottery, I will go to Africa and ride a majestic giraffe to the real parts of Africa and talk to the people of Wakanda and Zamunda so the world will know the truth finally.

I'm a Liberian but I have deep admiration for Ugandan and all African countries.

13:45 Wow so cute with those short hair😍

If you don’t like Uganda. Leave ! I am so tired of foreigners coming to Uganda just to criticize. None of you came from a Perfect country. Give us a break

Welp, I'm off to Tanzania!!

These videos help me for my upcoming trip to Uganda 🇺🇬 👍🏽👌🏽

My bro and sis of ugunda you got to step up you program you can't treat foreign black less than whites and expect the same tip or money.

I didn't hear you crying about the heat so it must not be too bad 😂😂😂

Wow ??

I think you have many misconceptions about Uganda and Kenya and the African continent at large.

You picked a wrong tour guide.That guy hasnt travelled.i come from another region and i have travelled around alot.if they realise you are not of the region and donot speak the local language,they are always very caring and try out of their way to make you comfortable but am ugandan and black.what is the tour guide saying?

You were spot on with the dating culture. I've apprroached women throughout the day and even waitresses will sell themselves to you. They will talk sex early on in exchange for financial support

People that look at a country from a media perspective will only get the extremes of that country. When you are on the ground and it is a country on the poorer side lots of its social aspects lean towards material gain because they simply have less. when you are in a country that has more you will see the country is more socially judgmental. when the entire county is wealthy you will see the country looks to exploit other poorer countries. The people never control the government but they do control the social aspect of their country. Except The USA , Canada, and Brazil. Because how large they are the local government and the immigrants shape each state, or providence. African countries can also be on this stage but it would be tribes instead of immigrants that shape the culture. I have been to every continent and many different countries and all has beauty and negative aspects to them the only difference is how generous the government is to its people.

The more you travel or at least learn about other parts of the world, the less shocked you will become. There is nothing to be shocked about. Just accept things the way they are.
