Uganda’s 10 highest paid music artists bag nearly a combined UGX600 million (USD162,000) a month in largely performance fees, a study done by CEO EA Magazine shows. This however does not include earnings from other hard to establish platforms such as celebrity endorsements, royalties by radio stations, discotheques and telecom companies who use their music as call back tunes.
Even though there is quite some competition in Kampala’s hotel space- with average occupancy rates standing at about 58% (a hotel needs about 40% occupancy to break even), with key noticeable names like Sheraton, Speke, Marriott, Serena, Hilton and Protea, all jostling for guests, Latitude 00 has also decided it has what it takes to compete with the big boys.

Luwombo is a traditional delicacy that originates from the Baganda in central Uganda. It is a meal prepared in banana leaves and gets ready by the steam from water. The dish comes from as far as 1887 during the reign of Kabaka Mwanga.
