"I Was Born by Mistake, My Mother was a Nun and My Father was a Priest"- HerbertSkillz Confesses

In a captivating episode of Galaxy TV's "The Deep Talk" show with Mr. Henrie, Herbert Skillz, the CEO 'The Sound Makers' Studios, a producer and singer stunned viewers with a personal revelation of how he was born and raised by nuns.

The accomplished Ugandan sound maker, popularly known as Herbert Dramuke, disclosed that he is the offspring of a church nun and a Catholic priest (father), shedding light on the unique challenges his mother faced during her unexpected pregnancy while serving in the church convent.

Skillz candidly shared the gripping tale during the interview, recounting the pivotal moment when his mother, faced with conflicting interests, had to choose between preserving her position as a nun and embracing motherhood.

Against the backdrop of societal pressures and advice from friends advocating for an abortion to safeguard her career, Skillz's mother defied the odds, choosing to give birth to him and ultimately leaving the church after informing his father. "She decided to give birth to me as she left the church after informing my dad despite her friends advising to abort the pregnancy inorder to save her career as a nun," he added.
