I was born in a village called Buteeza, Mbale district, on December 15, 1932. I studied in schools in Bugisu but later joined Aggrey Memorial College, Bunamwaya, started by the late Henry Kanyike. It was a nationalistic kind of school. I was very much influenced by the Kanyike schools which later extended to areas like Mbale where he started the African Public School.
I was one of the first students in that school before joining the Post Office where I worked as a postal clerk and a sub-post clerk in the early 1960s.
