Big Brother star Kyle Duncan Tushabe received a warm welcome back to Vision Group amid an air of ululations, cheers, hugs and congratulatory gestures from his workmates.
The Ugandan co-representative in the just concluded edition of the annual Big Brother TV show made a striking appearance at his workplace in Kampala.

Kyle co-hosts a TV show, Skizzy on Vision Group’s Urban TV. He is also a writer with the New Vision’s Features desk.
“I can’t wait to get back to my show, Skizzy. I’m sure my fans have been missing me,” said Kyle.
“I have a lot more for them this time but most importantly am thanking them for keeping me in the Brother House.”
Dressed in a black T-Shirt and dark Jeans, revealing his characteristic flair and swag, the 25-year-old spent the whole 90 days in the South Africa-based house together with five other finalists.

He beat 30 other participants in the game show that had a USD300,000 prize stake, to finish fifth best in the grand finale last Sunday.
Despite coming short of the prize money, there was hardly a sense of gloom as Kyle’s workmates welcomed him back from the show where he won continental fame.
The mood was all celebratory, with most of his colleagues pointing out that even if he didn’t win the jackpot, he was still a winner by having made it to the finale.

Kyle’s Ugandan partner in the show, Janette Lutaaya also made presence at the Vision Group offices. She was the last of the housemates to be evicted before the grand finale.
One of Kyle’s workmates said he can build on his newly-gained fame to realize his aspirations in the media and entertainment sectors.
“I am happy to be back home,” an excited Kyle said.
Kyle’s appearance started in the newsroom, then he went on to the Urban and Bukedde TV studios, drawing quite an attention from especially the ladies who could hardly let him pass without a hug.
But Janette seemed shy and timid, somewhat reminiscent of her first days in the South African game show. But she would later open up into a totally different character, as earlier promised before the start of the show.
She declined to tour the entire Vision Group premises with Kyle and instead met a few editors at their desks.
