Nakazibwe, who previously worked with NTV Uganda, took the opportunity to announce her much-anticipated return to the media world, although she kept the details under wraps.

The beloved presenter explained that she had taken a break to focus on her family, particularly to care for her newborn.
In addition to her son, Nakazibwe is also a devoted mother to her two biological daughters and Bruno K's daughter, Briella Kiggundu.
Nakazibwe in May welcomed a bouncing baby boy, seven months after quitting the Serena-based TV station.
She announced the exciting news on her TikTok page, posting a video of herself on her hospital bed with the caption, “It’s a baby boy.”
On Facebook, she posted, “Today we are a member stronger. The little man is here. Praise be to God.”

Good example
While most of her followers and fans including singer Bruno K, dashed to congratulate the 39-year-old, others praised her for managing to keep her pregnancy out of the public.
“Indeed private life is the best,” posted one Rebecca Katami on Facebook
Maria Natalie expressed surprise; “But we didn't see the pregnancy! Congratulations lady.”
Other commentators advised other Ugandan celebrities to learn from Faridah’s example.
“Someone should tag Ray P and others to keep their secrets and announce after achieving,” posed another user.
Nakazibwe, who has two teenage daughters, kept a largely private profile after exiting NTV in October 2023.
Rumours of her pregnancy were first outed by fellow journalist Kasuku, but they remained just that until she had her son.
