It takes a community to raise a child.
Recently, I and colleagues under initiative with support from Uganda Communications Commission visited my former school–Myanzi Secondary School where I got a pioneer and organic first grade in 2012 (the school had existed for 25 years without a first grade). From 2012, the school now gets first multiple grades every year (did I break the seal? Locals say so😁. Later, I joined Mityana Secondary School (Namukozi) for 'A' level and excelled in PCB/SM combination, got admitted to goverment's Busitema University and became a passionate medical doctor.
In the last decade Myanzi SS has got infrastructural improvement, new ICT community learning centre and the perfect green compound with plenty of tree fruits making learning more enjoyable as students are nourished by Lake Wamala's cool breeze—Thanks to the current Headteacher Mr. Ssekitoleko Ntege (in white shirt and black coat).
As the Lord continues to bless us with more resources, we shall transform Kambojja Primary School and Myanzi SS into beacons of social-economic transformation in the region. Children will have access to digital tools and skills to uplift societies and level inequalities. Who knew that a child from rural Kasanda can become anything today? We should protect these gains—One child/youth at time, communities will be truly transformed. It's possible.
Despite the challenges like corruption faced by our Government, I thank the Government of Uganda led by President Museveni for introducing UPE and USE which enabled me and millions of young Ugandans to attain free education. Thank you dear parents (Father RIP), teachers and entire community for the support through various ways. I am today because of your collective sacrifices made years ago.
For God and My Country
