Established in 1922 as a humble technical school, Makerere University is one of the oldest and most prestigious Universities in Africa. In January of that year, the school, which was later renamed Uganda Technical College, opened its doors to 14 day students who began studying Carpentry, Building and Mechanics.
The College soon began offering various other courses in Medical Care, Agriculture , Veterinary Sciences and Teacher Training. It expanded over the years to become a Center for Higher Education in East Africa in 1935. In 1937, the College started developing into an institution of higher education, offering post-school certificate courses.
In 1949, it became a University College affiliated to the University College of London, offering courses leading to the general degrees of its then mother institution.
With the establishment of the University of East Africa in June 29, 1963, the special relationship with the University of London came to a close and degrees of the University of East Africa were instituted.
On July 1, 1970, Makerere became an independent national university of the Republic of Uganda, offering undergraduate and postgraduate courses leading to its own awards.

When you pray for France do not forget to pray for that South African lady Sarah Baartman whose body was in French zoos being used as an exhibition. During her living days she was sexually abused and would be forced to walk naked in the streets of Paris and every white mafias would just touch her Body or have sex with her . She would be used in lectures as exhibition of how the Body of a Black lady looks like and even today the French people believe the clitoris of a Black wo...men has demons. Some psychological thoughts believe that was the beginning of lack of confidence by most Black women. Do not also forget to pray for the 18000 chopped heads of Africans who were beheaded during French colonisation of the Francophone countries. As am writing here these thousands of African bodies are hanged in French Museums as exhibitions of French Colonial supremacy.

"I've sold fish in the market for the last thirty years, because I never had the chance to go to university. Recently my daughter graduated from Makerere, which is one of the best schools in the country. When I walked through the gates to attend her graduation, I felt so happy, because I never thought I'd see the inside of a university."

I think Bebe Cool is like the Kanye West of Uganda. If you asked me at random for my best Ugandan musician, I would say it's Bebe Cool. The first local music I fell in love with came from Bebe Cool. His music was like espresso in the morning, teaching you to believe in yourself. It was that morning work out in the gym giving you energy to face anything that comes in the day. There is that aspect of self-belief, that confidence, that high esteem that comes when you listen to h...is music. His character is not up to me to judge. I will always judge him on his music, the very thing that drew me to him. You know, if he releases a song and I don't feel it, I say it. If he releases a music video that doesn't stir that dopamine and oxytocin in me, I will speak out. And that holds for everyone in my life, I judge you by your creative works. And I believe at the moment, Bebe Cool is doing an excellent work creatively. We all have our flaws, some of us are just so hypocritical that we keep our skeletons in the closet. But you must love Bebe Cool for his honesty and open criticism, if somethinf annoys him, he speaks out. He doesn't pretend because he has a reputation to protect, he chooses integrity over reputation. What more can you ask of a man? If you have a battle to face in life be it in relationships or business, just slide in Bebe Cool's music and you will feel powered up to fight that battle till you win it.
