I have failed to get what word to refer the popular Ugandan activist, motivational speaker and business man, Frank Gashumba.
On a mother's day like this, one wonders what to call him because it's all confusing. The proud single father has raised his daughter, Sheila Gashumba from when she was 1 year-old, single handedly until 18 years of age.
A Young Sheila Gashumba
Frank has been through all times with Sheila and provided the best support any father would give his daughter including taking her to the best of schools, allowing her to pursue her TV presentation passion and other things that would make her happy.

At some point in 2018, Sheila and her father separated briefly for some good number of months (about eleven) and this was after an incident where her dad gave her the beating of her life because of coming back home drunk.
Even in those months when the relationship was bitter, Frank told media that no one loves Sheila the way he does and he also cautioned her mother she was living with in that period to be careful because she was busy spoiling humble Sheila that had gone to her home to seek refuge.
But later the following year (2019) blood became thicker than water when the two just had to burry the hatchet and get back together as Father and daughter.
Daddy Daughter Time
Sheila's mother due her separation with the Dad could not raise their daughter and Frank typically regrets why he did not get a replacement step mom for his daughter, Frank said in a 2019 television interview.
Final Verdict :
Frank Gashumba is the mother and father of Sheila Gashumba and he also said that himself during that same 2019 TV interview.
