While pupils all over the country were sitting their National Primary Leaving Exams (PLE) , on Twitter, another mass engagement involving Ugandans was taking place. Talkative Rocker (@beewol) started the ball rolling with his random tweet –
Alright folks … Here’s a juicy Trending topic for Ugandan Tweeps #PLE2012 I shall attack first
and in a few hours, our timelines were filled with the hashtag #PLE2012.
[UPDATE: The hashtag hit the BBC : @beewol BOOOOM! #PLE2012 just reached BBC and guess who got a mention *breaks into song* Opa Ugandan Style! ]
Users set about asking parody questions usually attaching a subject at the start and the number of marks they would award if answered correctly. Topics ranged from celebrities, to politics, to sports as Ugandans went awol often posting very humorous questions that left many of us tugging at our tummies and drying our ears for the comedy of it all.
We took sometime to bring you some of the funniest tweets as posted by Ugandans on #PLE2012.
