His Story...
His nickname is Emma. He is an orphan, both parents died of HIV/Aids and alcohol addiction. The parents were Karamajongs and poor who came from Northeast of Uganda. His Aunt took him to Mukono for some time where she paid school fees for him, but then took him to Jinja to be cared for by a brother who was not even capable of supporting himself. Emma grew up on the streets. He was street boy for many years with only a faint hope that something would get better. He was taken in by a child outreach organization. His days consisted of schooling, bathing in the lake and then returning to sleep on the street. In P5 he decided to leave the project and sought out Uncle Stephen for counseling. He was then accepted into the family.
