This piece is not meant to be too serious…
For the one and only. For the first time, this piece is being written as an appeal to the Alpha and Omega of Uganda, the longest of longest, the one that sits on the iron throne, the one whose wisdom surpasses all, the one and only President Museveni.
I made a grave mistake last Sunday. In a bid to make a return to the running trail, I decided to jog through Kyambogo University. You know Kyambogo University was set up to be the pinnacle of STEM in this country, and that for many years was Kyambogo’s brand. Whenever you mentioned a desire to pursue an engineering coure, there was only one university –Kyambogo. As I jogged through Kyambogo, it could not stop jogging through me. Something was just off.
You know Kyambogo is always caught in crossfires. The students have always been accused (albeit rightly) of being local (as though this is even a crime). But they always had something to redeem them, the reputation as a centre of excellence in the things that mattered. But that illusion could also be slipping away.
Again, this piece is not meant to be too serious, it is meant to be playful, but then it is Kyambogo we are talking about here, it is the next generation of our country. Let us divert a bit. Not much, but a bit.
