Nuria Ranking: #1 in TanzaniaNdakika, a diehard traditionalist who was once a Christian believes a man of principles marries early and surrounds his father with grandsons. But he also strongly believes that when the donkey married the horse it begot something that was neither here nor there. ‘I don’t want a mule for a grandson’, he says emphatically. But his son, Moses, is madly in love with Mwende, the beautiful daughter of Nzemeli, and Nzemeli happens to be Ndakika’s topmost enemy.

nAt the same time, the strict Sunday school teacher that is Mwende had some time in the past tasted the fruit of maturity with a ‘butterfly’, which went against an oath she and Moses had taken ten years back to remain faithful to each other. Clearly, the roots have caught the blight; will the fruits also taste it? The stage is now set for a major collision, at a time when a strange fever has hit the village.

The day King Kong and I were kidnapped started off like any other Saturday."
So writes Moses, Uganda's most notorious schoolboy, at the start of his yet another wild adventure.
The deputy headmaster, Mr Karanja, has decided that the two friends must have their hair cut. They spend a pleasant morning in town, enjoying the freedom from Mukibi's Educational Institute for the Sons of African Gentlemen - until a sleek Mercedes Benz appears and their 'holiday' comes to an abrupt end. Their hairstyle thrusts them deep into the criminal underworld and they only escape being sold into slavery by the skin of their teeth.
This is the fourth of Moses' witty chronicles of life in Uganda's most awful school.
