“Let’s sell and buy from each other. It is possible to buy up to and recommend 95% stuff we need from members,” Kato said.

Last Thursday, FTM members met at Fairway hotel and Spa an elegant historical 4 star hotel for a meet and greet end of year dinner and launch.

At the dinner, new rules were adopted and an accountant turned professional sex therapist Brian Ssemanda teased out members with a sensational sex advice session, where he gave tips on how members can add more life into their sexual and health lifestyles.

Among members are business owners, Presidents, Board members, Managing Directors, Chair persons of different associations, Directors, Managers, and employees making things happen in their companies, as well as job seekers on this forum.
“Our main goal is Business and Networking globally,” said Mr Kato. The MC of the night Ms Rice Nsime encouraged members to do business with each other but added, “If you are not happy with the service offered by the members, don’t pay.” As it’s the group’s 100% customer satisfaction guarantee from it’s members.

Kato said the group was created to be beneficial and productive to all members.

“We want this to be the biggest networking What’s up group ever. As you all see we have so many serious business minded people and they are on this group for business but nothing else.” He emphasized

At the time fake news is all over the place, the FTM founder said in the rules governing the group, “We must be sure that what is/ was shared is the truth and the whole truth… Otherwise as members we have to apologize for untruthful stories.”
