While commenting about his success after the Kalangala rally, Rajiv said that; “Everyone wants to be number one or a winner, however [to me] any one who completes the race is a winner.”
Kalangala is located on Bugala Island, the second largest island in Lake Victoria, after Tanzania’s Ukerewe Island.
Our Spy who was at the rally reveals that after receiving his trophy and certificate, Rajiv, held a victory party with other rally drivers and his supporters.
The chief guest at the victory party was Rajiv’s father Kampala magnate Sudhir Ruparelia.
