M.I.T.G. Lyrics

"Peacock" by M.I.T.G is a fast-beat song about a girl who enjoys the world. She is neither so educated nor efficient in doing work but her beauty covers up for all that. She makes a living out of her peacock beauty wherever she goes whether Kampala, Nairobi or Mombasa.

Ayee, yeye yeye ye! Uuh! She's the one that am approaching, mama, umh!

She moves (her) slender body. Peacock!

When Jackie decided to do a song in Lugbara, a producer warned her that her idea was career suicide. However, today this song is so thrilling that people who don’t even understand her language sing along because of the catchy lyrics. Others gyrate to the melodic tunes. It plays on the world-class MTV Base plus regional EATV, Channel O en other broadcast stations. The video is shot in a predominantly black and brown colour mix and features JC plus two men dancing in a forest at night.
The song is basically about a girl's confessions to her lover who wants to quit their relationship. "Agasi" translated from Lugbara means "I have refused" (to say 'Goodbye!' to this relationship).
The first verse says: "You know I love you, don't fight! Come to me, let me show you good! I love him so much, he makes my heart pain. What will I do?"
The second verse says: "Hold my hand! I'm your friend. Dance with me! Alone, let me show you the joy of life! Because, I love you so much! You make my heart pain."
The hook says: "You are mine, mine alone. You don't know, baby. People have sung love songs. Come with me, baby! Because I love you so much! You make my heart pain."
Wow, now that's romantic! This song deserves an award!

Other Jackie songs with Lugbara lines include "Iringwa?" (Where is he?) about searching for your soulmate; "Were Were" (Kidogo Kidogo/ Small Small) ft. DYAN; "(Another Hannz Production) More Fire" ft. VARIOUS ARTISTS; "For All Time" ft. SAMMY (from Eritrea); "Gold Digger"; "Shamim"; "Don't Break My Heart (Remix)" ft. COCO FINGER; "Champion" en so forth...

Lugbara Alphabet and Vocabulary

Everybody knows that the English Alphabet has 26 letters. However, not many know that the Lugbara Alphabet has 28 letters (like Arabic) but minus Q and X. That’s quite interesting because it means that there are 24 letters exactly like those in English plus four more authentic letters (each with an apostrophe before it) namely: ‘B [like in Odu‘bua], ‘D [like in awa’difo], ‘W, and ‘Y [like in e’yo]. Nevertheless, some people ignore the apostrophe. Sometimes Z is pronounced as J for example in the name "Inzikuru"

What I find complex but very amazing about the Lugbara Vocabulary is that it has few words some of which mean different things depending on the pronunciation tones during speech. One word spelt the same can be used in three or more very different contexts, for instance the word Ezo for Warthog (Wild Pig) also means Girlfriend or fiancee. The word Ti means Cow but can also mean more than seven other things including Mouth, Language, Month, plus verbs like Harvest, Strangle, Sign, Produce (Give Birth), Drop (Ointment) or Sound dropping liquid, Thatch (a hut), etc or an adjective like "in vain". While reading silently as a beginner, you might find problems understanding a word in context but when spoken out in the right tone by someone, the word meaning is expressed. It’s always good to grasp the Vocabulary.

Lugbara Artefacts (Courtesy of Uganda Museum)

While rumours circulated in 2010-2011 that the Uganda Museum was going to be demolished, I was amazed by why the facts had been distorted. The Trade and Tourism Minister (before he became Minister of Justice and Constitutional Affairs), Major General Kahinda Otafiire, actually revealed, “No one, not even me, has said the building is going to be demolished. Instead of demolishing it, it will be preserved but within the new structure.” Having the tallest building in Africa would be amazing indeed, besides Uganda also has the Biggest Baha’i Temple in the whole of the Black Continent.

As a Museum goer myself, I believe the Heritage preserved here is interesting and very valuable for all Ugandans plus foreign tourists. Demolishing this effigy of Ugandan Architecture would be a Tragedy. I spent A Day at the Museum in 2009 to fish out the Best I could about my Culture and here is what I found. Luckily, the scary exhibits like the Leopard and Prophetess Nakayima didn't come to life.



The Lugbara End Blow Trumpet called LURU is made from a bottle shaped gourd.

The Side-Blown Trumpet MARE is made from a gourd and a wooden tube. It is blown through the hole in the gourd with the wooden tube pointing downward or under the left arm. Bee Wax is smeared inside the gourd which is wetted before it’s played only at death dances in union with the drum called NAITO.



The GUKE Trumpet is used by men and boys in most of their dance.



Both men and women smoked Water Pipes. Tobacco was ground to make Snuff. Special pipes were used for Hemp consisting of a bowl below a tray of hot embers. The smoke was drawn through a water filled container.

JUSTICE: Discovery of Crime
Misfortunes could arise from offending ancestor spirits. Both Lugbara and Madi used divining pots to assess the guilt of the accused. The small Lugbara pots represent possible suspects. They were heated and filled with medicated water. If the water boiled over, the suspect’s innocence was established. An accused was required to pass a similar test by the Madi. A pot was set on the ground and water poured in. If it did not flow out of the hole in the bottom, the accused was considered guilty.

Origin of LUGBARA

[Now the whole earth had one language and few words. And as men migrated from the east, they found a plain in the land of Shinar and settled there. And they said to one another, "Come, let us make bricks, and burn them thoroughly."

And they had brick for stone, and bitumen for mortar. Then they said, "Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower with its top in the heavens, and let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth."

And GOD came down to see the city and the tower, which the sons of men had built. And the LORD said, "Behold they are one people, and they all have one language; and this is only the beginning of what they will do; and nothing that they propose to do will now be impossible for them. Come, let us go down, and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another's speech." So GOD scattered them abroad from there over the face of all the earth, and they left off building the city. Therefore its name was called Babel (Hebrew word 'balal' means 'confuse', where mighty Nimrod's Kingdom began), because GOD confused the language of all the earth, and from there GOD scattered them abroad over the face of all the earth.]


Some spoke Arabic, others Aramaic, Italian, Chinese, Zulu, Spanish, Yoruba, German, Cheyenne, Hindi, Russian, Persian or Lugbara. The latter finally settled in Lado Enclave, ask Prophet Moses (Nabi Musa) when he comes back with Elijah. He might have just left out the details in Genesis 11: 1 - 9 (Tawrat/ Torah or Pentateuch) because the list must be too long and confusing. Sometimes, the truth is stranger than fiction.

Autobiography of the Author of the Book entitled "Sultan Isara"

"I was born 36 years ago in Ewava, a small village in Arua District of Uganda. According to Mama Evelyn Ocokoru, d/o Sultan Isara, the great Vurra Chief, I was born on Wednesday 6th July 1975 attended to by a traditional birth attendant. Sultan Isara died on 26th July 1949. Evelyn’s mother who died on 12th October 1995 was called Alia d/o Mukungu Aroa of Pajulu. My father Michael Omvitibo (R.I.P.) was born to Yakobo Oyi (R.I.P.) from Luu clan of Lugbara in the year 1940.Yakobo Oyi s/o Aziku died on 16th June 1985 while Michael Omviti’bo died on 5th January 2009. He was the only son of Rachael A’dakuru d/o Ajuanya of Anjuu from Bunakua’s family. A’dakuru was distinguished by clean feet and large ears, the features inherited by me. She gave me this name to mourn her sons she lost prematurely. Rakiel A’dakuru died on 27th January 1988.

I first met with formal education in Zaire (currently DRC) while in exile (1981/82 at Ecol Primary Official de Oce), then joined Eruba Primary School in 1983 for Class One during Obote II regime. I was the school Time Keeper for three years (1986-88). I excelled in PLE in Ewava Primary School in the year 1989, the year Arua experienced fatal famine, with aggregate 7 and distinction 1 in Science (92%) emerging the Best Candidate of Science in Vurra County. I was awarded two books (Hard Times by Charles Dickens and Complete Certificate Chemistry) as a prize by Dr. Eric Adriko who was then Member of Parliament for Vurra Constituency. This took place during Vurra Education Week 1990. I served as the secretary for English Club while in Ewava.

With this result I secured a place in St Joseph’s College Ombaci in Arua District for S1. For the next six years I was in Ombaci for both O and A‘Level studies. I was entrusted with the Chairmanship of Uganda Students’ Scripture Union Fellowship - Ombaci Branch in 1994/5 and elected the treasurer, Uganda Youth Redcross/ Crescent Ombaci Branch the same years. I attribute my success first to Almighty GOD, and then to both my parents and siblings, and Mr. Michael Knights a British Pharmacist and a Missionary who sponsored me at various levels of my Education. I was born fourth in a family of six children in this order: Anna Onzia, Alex Onzoma, James Candisi, Ruth Draru and lastly Janet Inzikuru. I further sat a supplementary A’Level Art Exam in 2003 at Kasese High School while working. With this and the Mature Entry of Makerere University, I was able to secure admission for Bachelor of Laws of Makerere University where I did one year 2005/6 at my personal expense, and Cisco Networking Course 2008 at the same University, the course which was sponsored by Elizabeth Cakuru. My character is sometimes simple, softspoken but reserved. Of course my principal is ever to succeed at all cost in a smart way and motto: “Achieve with Discretion”.

Due to circumstances beyond my dreams, I was recruited into Uganda Police Force in the year 1998 instead of joining the University to study my dream course (Medicine). So far, I have served in Kasese District Police Station and currently at Entebbe International Airport. Apart from employment, I do my small business at my cherished Computer Centre (Michael Knights Computer Net Services) in Kitooro, Entebbe. Isara Memorial Cultural and Community Library is my Brainchild Project to unite the sons and daughters of Isara and the descendants. I hope to initiate so many projects and programmes to benefit the community of Vurrra and the Lugbara People. It was also a big challenge for me to write the Biography of my grandfather Sultan Isara in 2008.

My hobbies are basically two. I like and enjoy adventures. The first time I traveled by plane is the most memorable in my life. On 10th May 2008, I left for United Arab Emirates and landed at Dubai International Airport about half past midnight aboard Emirates Air upon the invitation of Ms Elizabeth Cakuru, daughter of Mzee David Aiku who paid for all the travel expenses. I was charged with the responsibility of escorting Mzee David Aiku. He is one of the great elders of Vurra Ezuku, Isara’s clan, to attend his granddaughter’s wedding in London, but I was denied a Visa by the British High Commission, therefore, I escorted him half way up to Dubai. I later lodged in Piccadilly Hotel in Deira, Dubai for close to one week before my premature return to Uganda. On arrival, in the first 15 minutes, I bought a book (Leadership by Emotional Intelligence). Book reading is my hobby and that is why I have the desire of setting up many libraries to encourage reading culture. I am also a football fan and my cherished English team is Manchester United. I admire the biographies of great leaders like Koffi Annan a true African elite, Mahatma Gandhi father of India, Nelson Mandela -African freedom fighter, Mao Ze Tong of China, Giuliani the former mayor of New York, Dr. Erik Adriko and Sultan Isara, my grandfather.

I am proud and thank GOD for a family. My dear wife Jennifer Bua and three children (Josephat Drileba, Hoglund Ester Ceniru and Penelope Evelyn Asi’bazu)."

Lugbara Thunderbolt (Ovi)

According to some elders in Maracha, there is NO LOVE during Christmas nowadays. In the past, neighbours from the homestead would gather, sing Christmas songs and share gifts plus food together but today people think they know better. It's a new generation so technology takes centre stage. Kids would rather listen to new hits on radio or watch TV than sing outdated songs till they lose their voices by Boxing Day. People go to church but they do not place proper meaning to the season. You find kids walking around on the church verandahs. After the service, the youth go for walks. In the past, everything would be ready by Christmas Eve: the water and eats.

Also in the past, on Christmas Eve, youth would gang up, travel to the Chief's home or County Office and sing Christmas plus church songs. If their hosts felt moved, they would offer the singers some money. They would do this through the night. Some would make their Christmas preparations from early morning after the carols. On Christmas Days after 2004, a certain staunch Catholic mother would tell her son to get three extra plates in case unexpected visitors came by (You know, like the Three Wise Men. It actually happened during his 2009 Birthday). During some of those Christmas seasons, they would listen to the fluent Lugbara-speaking Italian Father Tonino Passolini (of the Catholic Parish in Adalafu, Arua) preaching on Radio Pacis after their mass.

We all need a saviour because we are born in the flesh. No one can claim to be sinless. GOD forgive me if am wrong but sometimes I find it hard to believe the Virgin Mary was completely spotless. Okay, maybe Adam's mark was removed from her by grace. As for Jesus, I do believe he was spotless and controlled himself perfectly. His heavenly father doesn't even have a Breath of Evil in HIM. Galatians 5 wonderfully summarises what every soul on earth goes through whether Muslim, Pentecostal, Buddhist, Taoist, Hindu, New Age, Pagan or Catholic. Jesus was a prophet who was born during Christmas to lead us to Heaven and no religion can claim him alone. We Lugbara call him "YESU KRISTO". May the Joy and Light during this Christmas and all those that follow reveal his everlasting Glory to you!
