Just for laughs... Bakiga They are tough, smart and assertive people. When you get on their nerves, you might live to regret. A Mukiga will not only tell you face to face when they are annoyed with you but they might punch you in the face as well. For long, the myth has been that they are stout people, but lately, you are likely to find some tall slim Bakiga. Many of them are also light-skinned. Banyankole They are beautiful people. Their long faces are envied by many. But they can be arrogant too. They also love themselves so much. Look around you and you will probably see them in a group together. Lugbara Their women are very hardworking. A Lugbara woman cherishes marriage, so much that she will be faithful to even the most stupid man. So just forget about that Marriage and Divorce Bill. They will never divorce. Bakonjo These are said to be short people, but tough. Baganda Most Baganda are kindhearted and respectful people. They are hospitable and welcome everybody, including strangers. Judging from the way they greet everyone formally, Baganda can be described as loveable. But some of them are hypocrites. They can smile when they are boiling inside and say goodbye when they mean good riddance. Physically, they are said to have big noses, but some Baganda today have small and long ones. The women are said to be so romantic. Banyoro/ Batoro They are soft-spoken and friendly. They have pet names like Adyeeri, Abwoli. The Batoro are particularly said to be promiscuous, owing to their belief; “Omusaija tayangwa,” literary meaning, “you cannot turn down a man’s advances.” Basoga George Isabirye, a Musoga, says Basoga are seen as typical womanisers, primitive and gifted chapatti sellers. Basoga women are said to be very patient with their husbands and can tolerate any marriage, however abusive it is. Acholi They are very honest, open, faithful and very hardworking. But all hell will break loose if one finds her spouse cheating. Most Acholi men are said to be lazy and spend a lot of time sipping local brew. You are likely to find a woman in Acholiland from the garden, carrying a child on her back, a basket of cassava on her head and hoe in her hand. The women are also said to be assertive. Langis Jackson Ociti, a Langi by tribe, says Langi men are very loyal, loving and hardworking people. There are allegations that their breakfast finds them in the bar. It is said they also beat their wives. Karimojong Agnes Moru, a karimojong, says people view them as the most illiterate and dirty people which is not true. Moru adds that they are hardworking people with a lot of respect for their husbands. They treasure their animals more than anything else in the world. Bagisu They are largely known for the imbalu (the circumcision ritual). They are rough people. You are not a man until you are circumcised. So they would force you to undergo the ritual. Itesot They are romantic but ‘players.’ They do not like women who domineer them and beat them up. Japhadola They are reserved people but can fight at the slightest provocation. Their alluring physiques speak for them.
