When Suzan Makula hooked up with her now hubby controversial Pastor Aloysius Bugingo, many of her past deeds came up in the media as people started digging up on her past including her past jobs and relations. The public was not happy to discover that Suzan was previously a Gagamel girl who Used to follow Bebe Cool around like a lost puppy.
It also came out that she used to work in a late night casino and the images of her serving in the casino were plastered all over the internet as she received criticism for her past actions. Makula got pregnant when she was in her second year at Makerere University, but her mother and most of her relatives weren’t happy with it so they made home a living hell for her.
According to Makula, since her family was so against her pregnancy, she vould not raise her child amongst every one in her family so.she decided to look for her own means of survival and in this journey, she needed money to take care of herself and her child and well, she decided to find a well paying job.
“I think I had one sister who accepted that since I was pregnant, I needed help. The rest wanted me to leave my mother’s house. By the time I gave birth, I had already seriously pondered over that. When I was in the hospital, my mother told me, this is how you’ve paid back your dad. My dad had already died before I gave birth… She was adding more pain,” said Makula, adding that this prompted her to hunt for a job.
After getting the job at The Pyramids Casino and Restaurant in Kampala, where she waited tables, she lied to her mother because the reputation of casino workers at the time wasn’t good. According to her, she lied to her mother that she was working at the prestigious Sheraton hotel.
“I didn’t want to be a burden to my mom and to my family, so I just got a job… I went and worked in a casino. When I got a job at a casino, I deceived my mom that I work at Sheraton Hotel because at the time everyone who worked at a casino was perceived as a prostitute,” she said.
The reaction from Makula’s family was however quite expected, considering she has said that her mother, Emeldah Kisembo, who gave birth to her when she was aged 50 used to be a nun who was raised by Serapio Bwemi Magambo, who served as the Bishop of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Fort Portal, from November 16, 1972, until his resignation on 17 June 1991.
