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.

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.
Sebabi, 47, got married to Kate Namanda, 30, in 2013 and she has given
birth to his eighth child. The man, who suffers from an extremely rare, unknown disease, won his title of the ugliest country’s man after he took part in the contest to make money for his family. “In 2002, I was mending shoes, when some people
approached me and said they had an event at which they wanted me to be a
chief guest.

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.”

Looks 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.”
