'Keeping Up with The Kardashians' star Kim Kardashian was asked by Ugandan president Yoweri Museveni what she does for a living on Monday. The 37-year-old reality TV star is currently traveling through Africa along with her husband Kanye West. 

As reported by People, Kim was in Kampala, Uganda and was meeting with President Museveni who asked her what she does for a living. An insider shared, "They met with the President of Uganda and the president asked Kim why she had to leave early. She replied that she had to go back to work. The president then asked what was her job and Kim, very politely, said that she had a TV show with sisters and family, and they were all waiting for her return". 

Kim and her husband Kanye gave the President a pair of autographed sneakers from Kanye's 'Yeezy' line. Museveni gave both Kim and Kanye Ugandan names, according to Uganda's state house's Facebook post. Kanye was given the name 'Kanyesigye' which means 'I trust' while Kim was given the name 'Kemigisha' which means 'the one with blessings from God'. 


A source shared that the couple "seem very happy together" on their Africa trip. "They went on safari together and a private fishing trip with North and they will visit the refugee camps together," the source added. "He likes to always have Kim by his side". "Kanye is likely to extend his trip in Uganda. He wants to get involved in creating a tourism and hospitality school for higher education," the source continued. 


As reported by TMZ, Kanye will be working on his new album in Africa along with Big Sean. The pair will be producing music and also shooting some videos during the trip. Even though it seems like a strict business trip, he had brought his daughter North and wife Kim along as well.
