According to Ramlah, her dream of becoming one of the country’s best Luganda news anchor never makes her rest at any one time plus the passion for her job that she earned for close to six months now is what pushes her on a daily.

Though this Muslim young believer wants to achieve her dream to the best, the covid19 pandemic affected her as she missed work for some days as she couldn’t afford the high transport dues and this disorganized her for some time but through prayer and faith she finally got back on truck.
