I’m now so hooked on ugali. Mombasa’s ugali is extra delicious. Who would prepare this traditional Tanzanian/Kenyan staple for me when I return home? pic.twitter.com/AEcea99yBh

This is to tender an unreserved apology to all my Kenyan and Tanzanian tweeps. I’ve just been informed by @MrD_Muli that I have committed a cardinal sin by eating ugali with a fork. I hereby announce my repentance. Ugali shall henceforth be demolished with my bare fingers! pic.twitter.com/Hhc5OY6wvu
