In 2016, a Typhoid Fever epidemic broke out. A very close friend fell victim, but there was no money for treatment. Abdallah was beginning to give when an elderly lady \u2013 who only served to confirm the adage that old age is wisdom &#8211; advised him to use tamarind to treat him. It didn\u2019t make sense, but without any other option, Abdallah obliged. He couldn\u2019t believe his eyes when his friend slowly began to regain strength. It was nothing short of a miracle! More critically, it spurred Abdallah on.<\/p><p>\u201cThis is how I started increasing my tamarind juice production,\u201d he says. \u201cI used capital of just UGX20,000, three-litre capacity saucepans and energy-saving stoves in my rented room.\u201d<br \/>On Eid Day in 2018, Abdallah called his friends who tasted the product, and he was immensely pleased when they declared that they liked it. From then on there was no turning back.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f652353 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"f652353\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ac533e2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"ac533e2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"https:\/\/abi.co.ug\/finance\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/CURAD-Story.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-icon\">\n\t\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"e-font-icon-svg e-fas-download\" viewBox=\"0 0 512 512\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"><path d=\"M216 0h80c13.3 0 24 10.7 24 24v168h87.7c17.8 0 26.7 21.5 14.1 34.1L269.7 378.3c-7.5 7.5-19.8 7.5-27.3 0L90.1 226.1c-12.6-12.6-3.7-34.1 14.1-34.1H192V24c0-13.3 10.7-24 24-24zm296 376v112c0 13.3-10.7 24-24 24H24c-13.3 0-24-10.7-24-24V376c0-13.3 10.7-24 24-24h146.7l49 49c20.1 20.1 52.5 20.1 72.6 0l49-49H488c13.3 0 24 10.7 24 24zm-124 88c0-11-9-20-20-20s-20 9-20 20 9 20 20 20 20-9 20-20zm64 0c0-11-9-20-20-20s-20 9-20 20 9 20 20 20 20-9 20-20z\"><\/path><\/svg>\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Click to download report<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Blessings don\u2019t always come dressed as such; sometimes they come clothed as disaster.
