Secretary Henry Ford Mirima/Entrepreneur Patrick Aroma,
Having been informed of the sad passing away of Mr Sam Njuba, some
matter of cultural interest sprung to my mind, and I thought I might
defer to you two since you seem to have particular expertise in the
area of modern sex practices and its impact on family and culture.
In particular both of you researched and are about to publish books
titled REVOLUTION IN UGANDA'S SEX STYLES (Mirima) and SEX BONANZA IN
LIRA BUS-PARK (Aroma).
My question is on how modern sex practices affect family traditions
and cultures in light of the relationship that Museveni had with
Getrude Njuba, widow of the recently departed Sam Njuba. It is
reported that there was a child born out of that relationship, who the
husband Sam Njuba accepted and brought up as his own.
Is this a culture or tradition born out of modern attitudes to sex and
paternity or is it an old and existing practice in Baganda culture
that a man will accept paternity of a child even if s/he is not the
bilogical father and the biological father is in fact known to him (
in this case, Museveni was Njuba's boss)?
Patrick Aroma, I am sure such a culture existed among the Langi in
that a child born to a married woman is considered the child of her
husband even if he is not the biological father- am I right?
To answer my question therefore, do we have a creeping western
influence in attitudes towards family life where some men may take a
very laisse faire attitude towards paternity as the late Mr Njuba
seems to have done? In otherwords, are women in Uganda now more
inclined to take a relaxed attitude to marital fidelity/adultery and
therefore behave like Mrs Getrude Njuba because they know their
husbands would not mind even if they became pregnant; if not what
impact has this exercised on the institution of marriage?
