A 47-year-old father of seven, who has been dubbed Uganda’s ugliest man, has become a father for the eighth time in Kyazanga, Lwengo district.
Scroll down for photos and video!
Godfrey Baguma has become a proud father of eight children after his wife Kate Namanda, 30, delivered a healthy baby girl. The couple now have six children together, while two others are kids from Baguma’s first unsuccessful marriage.
They took my pictures and a few days later, I saw my picture
in the newspapers where I had declared myself the ugliest man alive. I
was shocked and angry at the same time because I had not said so. They also told me that as a cobbler, I could not make enough money to sustain my family.
They asked me to participate in a contest, saying I would make more money since I would be a tourist attraction. I agreed, and indeed I won. That is how I got the nickname, Ssebabi, which means the ugliest of them all. Today, I feel good, about it because it is an honour.”

Godfrey and Kate live in a small house, bringing up all eight
children and trying to make both ends meet, but they did not complain.
Kate said: “Once you find a man you think is right for you, do not
listen to what other people say. Follow your heart. Money and physical
appearance should not be an issue.”
