Wasawa the Bottleboy
by Norman Nakhokhoe
Having Met Waswa in one of the streets in kampala l asked him if he can collect for me Empty Mineral water bottles which were thrown in dustibins of sewages and l could pay him pennies. He was very happy and he started collecting to the point he collected over 50000 bottles which l managed to Build Bottle house now being used in Bunabumali as an office for Bunabumali Project

After that Waswa managed to also stay in Buna having learnt some daily working conditions he also started learning how to look after cows and purchasing coffee he is very trusted and now looks after many developments on Bnabumali farm.
Timedesk manged to pay Waswa 200 Euros which made him buy iron sheets to build himself s small shelter and it now awaits Mudding and out of the wages he managed to buy Bicycle as well  Waswa loves Buna becoz his life has changed which he didnt believe it could happen
