Editor, Refer to the article, “Weddings: Would you hire an MC or use a family friend? (Society Magazine, July 11). I thank The New Times for this topic. I have been to so many functions in here Uganda, but at times you wonder why the hosts did not think about the importance of an emcee. At times the jokes made are so irritating and embarrassing to both the hosts and the guests. I agree with you that, the emcee must be known by the bride and the groom. Ivan Byamugisha, Uganda
