Halima Namakula

Bio

Halima Namakula (born January 1, 1960) is a Ugandan musician, actress, entrepreneur and humanitarian who in 2009 was nominated to represent Uganda in the Mrs. World beauty pageant. Namakula started her career as a stage actress when she was young and in school with the group called 'The Black Pearls'. Namakula's acting partner, husband, and the father of her children died in 1994. Though her stage name is Halima Namakula, she sometimes referred to as 'the mother of all artists'.

In the 1990s after the death of her husband, Namakula relocated back to her home country and continued on with her acting, joining a TV soap opera, 'That’s Life Mwattu', as Michelle. In 2008 Namakula celebrated her 10th year anniversary in the music industry right after she had what the media called 'a flopped show' at Kati Kati with K-Ci & Jojo.

In April 2012 Namakula released a song call 'Digida' meaning dance, but this time she stayed away from the nursery rhymes she's known for.
