It’s just hilarious to hear them call themselves ‘The Rats’. I guess you abhor these small creatures like I do unless you come from Tororo where am told they can eat them to convey their anger. My perception of them though, as I write this, has changed. Certainly there is a brilliant reason why a team of seventeen Ugandan ‘moguls to be’ prefers to be called ‘The Rats’. Together they boast as one of the few modern investment clubs our mother country has ever had, The Rats Network Savings and Investment Group(RNIG). We may be making some unforgivable assumptions here, what is an investment club? Jesse Ibanda, the chairman, RNIG confidently defines such a club as ‘a group of friends or co – workers who typically meet regularly to, create a pool of money and discuss investment ideas so they collectively make decisions on investments, members usually take turns reporting and researching on possible investments.’
