From the streets of Kampala, where young people gather every Sunday to showcase their talents, we bring you a fascinating story about skating, the sport of gliding on wheels. Many of you may have seen a young woman skating while wearing a gomesi, a traditional Ugandan dress. However, her journey and passion for this sport go far beyond what you see on social media. In 2024, she was selected to represent Uganda at the Olympic Games, but unfortunately, her dream came to an end before she could make it there. Today, we bring you the story of Jane Francis Nakigozi, exploring her journey, the challenges she has faced, and the rise of skateboarding in Uganda.
