Write about a random act of kindness you’ve done for someone.
As I rushed from my Alinga Farms’ shop, going back to my car, I noticed this young girl half-naked laying flat on her stomach and on hot dirty tarmac.
Since I was walking fairly quickly, I passed her, then I realised that I needed to stop and pay attention to this young person just laying there.
When I approached her, I noticed that she kept wreathing periodically. She is probably hungry or, in addition to her mental illness, she has contracted other illnesses such as malaria, I thought.
I looked closer and I saw liquid stuff oozing out of ill child’s girl parts. And I wondered.
Later when I mentioned this, some of the market vendors were of the view that she was likely gang raped by the homeless youth or men who are often intoxicated from drugs and sleep in the market.

What has become of us as humans? I thought.
In the spirit of Wangari Maathai’s “doing my little thing,” I walked into the offices of the Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA) Office in Bugolobi to inquire who is responsible to assist persons such as the ill child laying wreathing on the tarmac, right in the front of the main entrance of the market.
