Even your Wikipedia You even have no YouTube channel. For this reason, you will need to hire me,” the Canadian trained communication expert informed in her letter.

Job application to manage Gen. Tumukunde’s social media
Dear Gen. Henry Tumukunde (RTD), I am submitting my application to be your Social Media manager on all social media platforms.
I come highly recommended by none other than Martha Leah Nangalama (my selfie).
Well, you are going to need me one way or another. Your Twitter is nearly nothing. Your Fakebook is pathetic. You have no presence on Instagram. To boot, you have no Linkedin profile. Even your Wikipedia needs to be corrected. For this reason, you will hire me. You even have no Youtube channel.
In 2015, you boasted that you had more dollars in your house than anyone could imagine. Well, now, you are going to use some of those dollars to pay me.
WHY HIRE ME?
Because I am a Ugandan.
Because I am an IT professional with over 25yrs of documented work experience in the Information Technology field.
Because I was on social media before you joined it.
Because I was on the Internet when you were just getting out of the bush.
Because I am fluent in English. I speak French too. I am fluent in Luganda and Lumasaba depending on who you ask.Well, as you will remember, elections are won by Data Science. Ask Uhuru, Raila, Ramaphosa, Mnangagwa, Trump and Buhari… many more others. If you dig deep, you will find that Canadian Big Data Scientists helped to win those elections. You might have heard of Cambridge Analytica. Yes, this is where you are heading.
Apart from the above, here is my Linkedin profile (likely needs editing to include that I have published a book about the Bush War and your boss President Yoweri Museveni PLUS having been working in media for the last 7yrs).
I look forward to hearing from you.
