Summary
George Bashukwa served for 31 years rising to the rank of principal officer in the Uganda Prisons Service. Twenty-six years later, he still enjoys visiting prisoners and telling them how they can change their lives and turn to the Lord.
With his children grown up and grandchildren also becoming older, the 85-year-old lives with his wife Perepetwa rearing animals, tending gardens and plantations on Rushinya Hill, Ruhanga Parish in Itojo Sub-county in Ntungamo District.
“The work of a prisons officer is hectic that even after all these years of retirement you feel there is a lot you missed doing. The prisoners have life, challenges but the greatest thing is they also can repent. That is why I wake up every day thinking about what I can tell them to change their lives,” Bashukwa says.
