My story

Hello! My name is Amos Kukiriza and I was born on August 12, 2013 as the eldest son. I have three brothers and a sister. Together with Dad and Cissy, my stepmother, we live in a two-room house. At school, I play football with my friends during breaks or we build huts. I'm also very good at math, which is where I got the highest grades. When I get home, I always hope that Cissy has cooked posho with cassava and rice. That's my favorite food!
