• Bajjo disclosed he pays UGX 75 million per term for his children’s international school fees.
• The revelation shocked many, totaling over UGX 200 million annually.
• Highlights growing demand for elite education and widening affordability gap in Uganda.

Events promoter Bajjo has opened up about the staggering cost of raising his children, revealing that he spends a jaw-dropping 75 million Ugandan shillings on school fees every single term.

Speaking during an interview on Bukedde TV, Bajjo shared that his children are enrolled in international schools—an education choice that comes with a significantly high price tag.

“I have children who go to international schools, so I pay about 75M every term as their school fees,” he revealed.

The promoter’s statement has since sparked widespread reactions, with many Ugandans expressing shock at the sheer amount.

For context, 75 million per term translates to over 200 million shillings annually, a figure that is far beyond the reach of the average household in the country.

This revelation also sheds light on the growing trend among affluent Ugandan parents who are opting for international schools which offer globally recognized curricula such as the British or American systems, modern facilities, smaller class sizes, and a wide range of extracurricular activities—all of which contribute to the high fees.
