In Uganda and Somaliland, music is a favourite pastime activity for 7 in 10 people – some even call past time 'music time'! No other country in Africa can match up. And when it comes to watching TV, our brothers and sisters in Uganda and Somalia still lead the pack! This is despite Uganda having only 3 free to view TV stations compared to Kenya’s 6.
