Ugandan men and the folly of asking questions whose truthful answer they can't stand

"Omwaana Wuwo?" announced the poster on the urinal's wall in Iganga, deep in rural, Eastern Uganda. I instantly recognized the question. It's a direct translation of the Kiswahili expression: Mtoto ni wako? Is it your child?

I get the rationale for placing the poster in a place where men can see it as they go about their business, when their future, quite literally, is in their hands. It's an opportune moment to question the paternity of their children. Or so I thought.
