Quote: "Michael Jackson’s Uganda nanny comes from Bushenyi

GRACE Rwaramba, the woman who took care of Michael Jackson’s children for 12 years, was born and raised in Ishaka, Bushenyi district, in western Uganda.
Though she had lost her job as a nanny two months ago, Rwaramba is at the centre of a custody battle for Jackson’s three children who, after the death of their father, have reportedly requested for her return to the Los Angeles home.
Sources said 42-year-old Rwaramba had an increasingly central role in the children’s lives, who called her “Mum”.
Her close friends and schoolmates in Uganda describe her as friendly, good-natured and sociable. She grew up in a family of about 15 children.
Her father, Job Rwaramba, a medical worker at Ishaka Adventist Hospital, and mother, Magdalena Kinyogote, had fled to Uganda after the first troubles in Rwanda around 1960.
“She had many sisters who have since settled in the US,” a source told The New Vision.
“They all followed the elder sister, the late Teddy, who left Ishaka in the early seventies. Another sister, Rose, got married and settled in Fort Portal.”
Described as fluent in Runyankole, Rwaramba, who left for the US in the early 1980s, often returns to Uganda for private visits. She was reportedly here at the end of last year to visit relatives, some of whom live in Kasese, and stayed at Kampala’s Sheraton Hotel.
According to her former classmates, Rwaramba attended Ishaka Adventist Hospital Primary School and later moved to an undisclosed school in Kasese before joining her elder brother and sister in the US.
She went to high school in Connecticut and obtained a Bachelors degree in Business Administration at the Atlantic Union College in Massachusetts.
Her father died in 1980 and was buried at the family home in Ishaka. Her mother passed away two years ago upon returning to her native Rwanda.
The family homestead stands on a large acreage in Ishaka town.
Prominent is the main house, a recently renovated, self-contained bungalow. Near her father’s grave is the tomb of her brother, Philip.
Neighbours said the bungalow with electricity and piped water is occupied by tenants.
The UK’s Daily Mail reported that Rwaramba started working for his company in 1991, dealing with insurance for employees.
She is described as Michael’s most trusted employee. When his first child, Prince Michael Joseph Jackson Junior, was born in 1997, she became the boy’s nanny.
In the early days, she is thought to have had a short-lived romance with Jackson’s brother, Jermaine, although some American and British media reported that she had secretly married Michael.
It was later revealed that she wedded Stacey Adair in Las Vegas in February 1995. It is believed that she is still married to Adair since no record of a divorce has come to light.
Michael Jackson’s father, Joe, yesterday declared in the strongest terms that he and his 80-year-old wife have sole authority over the singer’s children.

I wonder if the NOI 'Sister Rose' babysitting the J3 is Grace's sister 'Rose'???? <!-- s:shock: -->:shock:<!-- s:shock: -->
1995
In 1995, Michael married Lisa Marie Presley. Also in 1995, coincidently, there is a Las Vegas marriage certificate showing that Grace married Stacey Adair. No pics of the Grace/Stacey ever appeared and after a few years, Grace stated that Stacey had 'died'.
2008
In December 2008, Michael fired Grace, again. Coincidently, also in December 2008, there is another Las Vegas marriage certificate on record showing that Grace married Joseph Kisembo. No pics of Grace/Joseph ever appeared. A TMZ reader comment stated that this marriage certificate was 'returned' the next day.

@Icantstoplovingu, no problem!
But, how bizarre! The 2 links posted in this thread keep breaking, esp the Uganda Grace one!
The original TMZ link was dated September 18, 2009. Just to clarify, the statement was from a commenter to a TMZ article. The commenter stated that the Grace-Kisembo marriage certificate was 'returned the next day'. I haven't haven't found the original yet but I did find another TMZ link where a different commenter said same thing more or less.
Here is the alternate TMZ link the different commenter states Grace 'returned' Kisembo marriage certificate. This TMZ link is also dated Sept 18, 2009 and refers to 'covert' return of the Joseph Kisembo Las Vegas marriage certificate. See page 1, post #3, 3 paragraph...

Grace's Charity and MJ's Will
Also, while searching for the broken TMZ link, I stumbled across this scary post which refers to Grace's charity website and the MJ will 20% donation. See quote below from page 15, post #213,last paragraph....
<!-- m -->http://www.tmz.com/2009/10/12/michael-j ... -trust/15/<!-- m -->
"That's the Truth; Human Nature; Nanny Grace already is attempting to tap the 20% for charities, forming a 'for profit' 2009 charity company, and Judge did' award Katherine the third seat, at that 20% for charity table.

A Different Blog on Grace's Charity
Regrettably this author referred to Michael as Jacko but the author did check out Grace's charity website and suggested that people use different charity as author felt Grace charity was 'bogus' somehow.
