Her social media platforms are flooded with congratulatory messages as we report this.

Uganda Christian University (UCU) Mass communication finalist Martha Kemi Kagimba commonly known as Martha Kay is in joy unspeakable after finding out that she performed excellently in her final exams this year.

Martha took the celebrity status tablet recently when she posted a comic video in which she was thanking God for being knocked by her dream car, a 2016 Range Rover.

Revealing the news to her fans on Tuesday, the All Saints’ Cathedral young star said that before she met God, everything in her life was failing. She was leading the class from the bottom. Always on the verge of expulsion for poor grades.

“I had zero to no friends. I was bitter, stressed and confused. I will be graduating with a first class degree. That all changed when I got saved. I started to lead the class with super grades. I now have more friends than I can count and I am more happy, joyful, stress-free and living my life with purpose,” she reveals.

“People ask me how I do it but the fact is that it’s all GOD. My life before him was just a dustbin life without direction. My bachelors degree was never easy. I was doing photography on the side and had limited time to read. The fact is God was in it,” she further wrote.

Martha has since the Range rover incident graced several legitimate and prestigious stages, met personalities she never dreamed of ever meeting in life. She has become a “want to be like you” figure for several youth and photography professionals.

She has been taken up as a brand ambassador and stands as a favored figure for cooperate firms that seek youth representatives.

Martha says that when you trust Him (God), He will make you the head and not the tail.

“I trusted him and now I am proud to say that I had the only First class degree in my class major: communications major and one of the four in the entire course,”

“Surely. If I could tell of where I came from no one would believe me. All I can say is I’m (so) grateful to God because he turned my life upside down. He turned my mourning into dancing. He took all my pain from yesterday. He made me a victor! An overcomer! Without Him all this would be impossible,” she wrote in conclusion.
