Once a celebrated member of the iconic gospel group Limit X, Dr. Sempebwa shared the stage with fellow members Paul Mutebi, Paul Serukenya, and Isaac Rucci, gaining widespread recognition in the 1990s. 

The group was renowned for its electrifying performances and uplifting gospel music. 

However, as time passed, Limit X disbanded, and the members pursued different paths. For Dr. Sempebwa, his journey led him to become a renowned intellectual who has worked in over 87 countries, authored 18 books, and earned a reputation as one of Africa's most influential thought leaders.

Mangoes and Meaningful Connections

During the launch, Dr. Sempebwa captivated the audience with personal anecdotes and profound reflections. 

He compared relationships to mango picking, sharing a childhood memory of enjoying mangoes despite often picking rotten ones. 

If you’ve never picked a bad one, you’ve never truly gone mango picking,” he said, explaining that the same applies to human relationships—one must experience both the good and bad to truly understand the value of connection. 

His book, People-ology, provides practical principles for building strong, meaningful relationships while offering readers tools to evaluate the impact of the people around them.

Praise for Dr. Sempebwa’s Impact

The book launch also saw heartfelt tributes from those who admire Dr. Sempebwa’s ability to connect deeply with others. 

Pastor Wilson Bugembe also highlighted Dr. Sempebwa’s authenticity, noting that his words resonate because they come from a place of genuine experience and truth.

Christine Musisi praised his natural talent for forging authentic relationships, describing him as someone who "truly values people and adds value to those around him.

People-ology is a book that invites readers to reflect on their relationships, challenge existing norms, and rethink the way they connect with others. It promises to inspire and educate, leaving an indelible impact on anyone looking to deepen their understanding of human connection.
