the X-Mass day
The Town Dogs mother wanted the son to study but when you look at the type of business
she was running, it was only proving food at home (one meal a day) and that made it a
challenge for the Town Dog to study. The mother used to sale tomatoes, onions, and
silverfish among others which had a capital of not more than Ten thousand shillings as it is
seen bellow is the town Dogs mother Nagawa Christine with her business.
Due to the lack of school fees at home, Town Dog had to look for the possible ways of
studying and there was an orphanage/rehabilitation center in Kibubu Village Lugazi
municipality which used to take kids from the street where Lugazi Simple supermarket is
located by now. It’s in this area where the street kids used to stay/gathered because of its
good geographical location of trees by then which made it a suitable place for the street kids
to stay in and from that area, that was place the owner of the rehabilitation center called
Jaja Maria and the team used to get the street kids from and take them to her rehabilitation
center where she used to provide them with the basic needs, such as rehabilitation services
for the drug users, free education and all the school necessities to those who had interest in
education where they were taken to good schools such as Kibubu Academy, Community
among others.
The town Dog had his friend who was staying at the street by that time who explained to
him what was going on at the street and then he asked him whether he wanted free
education and he gives him the way forward or not. They talked a lot and the Town Dog got
interested in his friend’s deal. Basing on what his friend had told him, the town Dog had to
live his home to go to the street, not because he was an orphan or drug user but he did it to
get education.
