THE LEGACY OF KATUBEA’S FAMILY

Binomo’s mother’s unwavering belief in God leads her family on a journey of determination and success against all odds.

Binomo was a promising, bright child from Nyahoora primary school. He had performed exceptionally well in his primary leaving examinations. However, his poor financial condition made it impossible for him to join prominent schools like St Mary’s College Kisubi, Uganda Martyrs ss Namugongo,  St Mary’s Kitende and many others.

His mother, Katubea, was a banana seller at Igorora trading center. She worked tirelessly to provide for her children and ensure their education. Her dream was to see her children graduate.

Her faith in God was unshakeable. She dedicated her nights to prayer, seeking divine assistance for her children’s education. She believed that God would provide a way for her children.

Binomo joined Kagongo secondary school, a more affordable institution. His mother struggled to pay school fees, but she managed to secure a loan commonly known as “kafuna” from a local money lender Kabusimba.

The situation worsened when Binomo’s brother, Tadoda, also joined Rutooma secondary school for his secondary education. The burden of paying school fees for two weighed heavily on Katubea.

Despite the challenges, Binomo excelled in his studies. His mother’s struggle and faith motivated him. He finished his senior six with high grades, which brought hope and joy to his family.

However, the dream of joining a university felt like an uphill battle. Binomo travelled to Kampala-Mukono, where he took up a casual job at an electricity company to save for his university fees.

One day, Katubea called him. She wanted him to apply for a university position. Binomo hesitated, wondering how they could afford it, but his mother’s faith was unshakeable.

Heeding his mother’s advice, Binomo applied at Bishop Stuart University for a bachelor’s degree in arts with education, majoring in teaching Kiswahili language.

By God’s grace and his mother’s prayers, Binomo was admitted to the university. Despite all odds, he studied hard and graduated with a first-class degree.

His brother Tadoda also pursued his studies at the Uganda Pentecostal University. He graduated with a first-class degree in law and later joined the Law Development Center in Mbarara.

Their mother’s efforts and struggle weren’t in vain. Her children’s success was her victory. She lived a happy life, knowing her sacrifices had brought them a brighter future.

Their success also brought about a change in their living conditions. The sons built a mansion for their mother, a far cry from the grass-thatched houses she was used to.

Katubea’s faith and determination had not only seen her children through school but had also lifted them out of poverty. Her belief had indeed moved mountains, changing their lives for the better.

This story stands as an inspiration to many. It shows that faith, determination, and hard work can overcome the toughest challenges and lead to triumph.

The younger Binomo’s sister Lilino was chasing her nursing dreams at Mayanja Memorial health institute in Mbarara. Her ambition was to serve her community as a nurse and later as a doctor.

Binomo’s sister Lilino had already started her journey as a nurse at Keihangaara Health centre. Her dedication had earned her the role of acting in charge of the health centre.

In the midst of academia, Amos and Julius, Binomo’s brothers, were students at Bishop Stuart University. One was pursuing a bachelor’s degree in arts in Education majoring in Kiswahili language as a teaching subject and the other in accounting and finance.

Not all of Katubea’s children pursued formal education. Some, like Francis and Aloysious, found their calling in business. Francis is a prosperous real estate dealer and bar owner in Bwahwa, while Aloysious owns the district’s largest banana plantation and is also deals in beans and coffee production.
