KAMPALA, UGANDA - APRIL 11: A dance group composed of disadvantaged Ugandan children from Kampala's slums both put in their spectacular dance performance and raises awareness to support children in need.The talented children's group Ghetto Kids have been regularly an internet sensation since their first video in 2014.The group has recently shaken the internet again with the video clip “ODG”, Nigeria’s most Shazamed song of the year by Olowu Taiwo David popularly known as Eltee Skhillz released in 2022.The dance group initially started with five underprivileged kids, but all have grown. There are now over 30 of them vibrating to the beat of the music from all over Africa, all recruited in the streets of Kampala, the capital city of Uganda.Founded by Kavuma Dauda as a non-governmental organization, the "Ghetto Kids" group helps disadvantaged children and orphans get their basic needs and school education, using music, dance, and drama.Duada told Anadolu Agency that he is also an orphan who lost his father when he was seven years old, and he is from a very large family of 30 children from six mothers.Dauda, ​​who lived on the street for a while, said he found a sponsor for his school expenses thanks to his football talent, so he completed his university education and became a teacher.He said, “I decided and promised myself that ‘When I grow up at least I’ll be able up to help one kid’.”10 years ago, Dauda found three children who could not pay the school fees and taught them some dance figures. They made money by going out and performing in the streets. They participated in a competition that they heard from the people watching them on the street, and they won a goat by being the first in that competition. Thus, they paid the children's school fees by selling that goat.The charitable Ugandan teacher said “Why are we called ‘Ghetto Kids’? It is because all these children come from the slums of Kampala and around Uganda. So that is why we are called ‘Ghetto Kids’.”Dauda said the main reason for establishing the dance group is to build a better future for children.“These children are so talented. They have the talent already, so rehearsing and training with them is just, just. But they are already talented. We are just polishing their talent,” he noted.“The dance we do is natural, the happiness they showing to the World,” explained Dauda, adding that Ghetto Kids are always happy because the dance makes them forget that they lost their parents, and they had nothing to eat.Kayondo Madiwanah King, a 13-year-old member of the group said he was living with his parents in a “very bad condition” on the streets of Kampala before joining the group.Madiwanah King explained how he started to dance with Ghetto Kids, saying: “I wanted to dance very much then I used to dance on the street when they give me some tips. Yeah, then I go, and I buy something to eat with my parents. So one group saw me when they even dance on the street so they told me that if I can join them because I wanted to dance, I joined them. We started dancing on the streets with them.”Patricia Nabakooza, another member of the group said she really loves dancing “though I never used to see anybody does that somebody's inspire me, but I just used to feel it every time they used to put music.”“I dance, I dance because that was the term I used to full happy. Remembering all those sleeping on the streets be caring be, no food, no clothes, medication. So, every time I used to dance, I used to feel at peace most of the time,” she added.
