Others,like Oliver Nakamya,were just impatient to start utilising the attained skills,vowing to pester her  parents to give her  simple startup capital and start making half cakes.

“This is something I can do and buy basic needs and lessen the burden that my parents go through,” Nakamya notes, lauding Kitovu Mobile for such noble initiatives
