IBANDA

A journalist from Western Uganda has reportedly ended her romantic relationship to concentrate on her professional endeavors.

Eiraka Radio journalist Carol Namumpa alias Carol Tarashan took to social media to announce her decision to focus on her career after confirming her split from her partner. Namumpa in her late 20s has chosen to prioritize her career ambitions over her personal life.

In a Facebook post, Namumpa stated, “I am officially single… Let me stick to journalism.”

Namumpa, a respected radio journalist in the region, has been praised for her dedication to her craft. Her decision to rededicate herself to her work is expected to further enhance her reputation in the field.

In her book, “Outsiders Still” which explores the experience of womens of female journalists in the newspaper industry in Canada, Vivian Smith, the author and a former journalist and editor at The Globe and Mail, reveals that despite progress, women remain underrepresented in leadership positions and face various obstacles, including systemic inequality, sexism, and work-life balance challenges.

The author conducted interviews with female journalists across Canada and found that many still feel like “outsiders” in the industry. From young journalists worried about balancing work and family to senior journalists reflecting on decades of accomplishments amidst frustration with newsroom sexism, Smith sheds light on the persisting gender barriers in the news industry and the need for change.

Vivian Smith – who spent fourteen years at The Globe and Mail as a reporter, editor, and manager – finds that many of the obstacles that women face in the newspaper industry are the same now as they have been historically, made worse by the challenging times in which the industry finds itself.

“The youngest fear they will have to choose between a career and a family; mid–career women madly juggle the pressures of work and family while worrying that they are not “good mothers” and the most senior reflect on decades of accomplishments mixed with frustration at newsroom sexism that has held them back,” excerpts of Vivian Smith’s book.

On the other hand, Ritah Nandere a Ugandan female journalist, reporter and Show Host with Church of Uganda – COU Family Television says it is important for young women to have self-awareness and understanding of their purpose and goals to help them make right decisions that align with their values and aspirations inorder to avoid things that might hinder their progress.

“And it’s ignorance I usually tell young ladies if you understand who you are and what you are called to do, there certain things which shouldn’t be done coz of …..!!! Everyone has a will that’s why one can side to let go of certain things because they want to live their own. The lady leaving her boyfriend it comes with so many reasons why? Was he the right person, I mean there can be so many reasons,” said Nandera.
