Kenyan Travel vlogger and YouTuber Gertrude Njeri Juma also known as Miss Trudy has received trolls from Ugandans over a tweet she made after visiting a park in the Country.
In a tweet, Miss Trudy was surprised that Uganda has a game drive, something she thought only existed in Kenya.
Uganda has surprised me today! I did not know they also have game drive in Uganda! I thought that these are only in Kenya & Tanzania We spent the evening watching Antelopes, Giraffes,zebras, warthogs, water bucks and Hippos.

This has seen Ugandan netizens troll her claiming she is being ignorant.
In her response, Miss Trudy stated that she was speaking her truth and she did not understand why she was being trolled.
“I don't understand why people are coming at me, and it's not cool at all. You know, being a visitor, you people should be showing me, love. It's not like I have hated anyone. I am just speaking the truth. Am I not allowed to speak my truth?", she said.
Miss Trudy is currently touring Uganda with his boyfriend Wode Maya, in conjunction with Uganda’s Ministry of Tourism.
However, other Ugandans took her side, saying Uganda had not done a good job of marketing its game safaris as tourist attractions, unlike Kenya and Tanzania, which are globally known for having several game drive destinations. Others claimed their country, Uganda, remained undiscovered.
Kenyans have also joined in the conversation, exchanging words with Ugandans in Miss Trudy’s defence.
