FUEL, an acronym interpreted by the organisers as “Fuelling Leadership Excellence”, is designed to equip students with practical leadership skills, values, and the mindset to lead with responsibility and purpose.
The issue of drug and substance use is becoming increasingly prevalent in our society, especially in schools and universities. Many children are involved in drug use, yet parents often remain unaware of what is happening in their lives.
Uganda Christian University (UCU) has officially named one of its major buildings at the Kampala Campus after former Vice Chancellor, Rev. Canon Dr. John Senyonyi, in recognition of his leadership and contribution to the growth of the institution.
The win is a motivation for everyone on the team, a push that creates more confidence for the ladies to believe they can competitively face any team. Before we played KCCA, they were unbeaten too, so this was a determinant win—especially against such an opponent,” she added.
A new chapter of hope and improved healthcare has begun for mothers and newborns in Northern Uganda with the official launch of a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at Amai Community Hospital in Amolatar District.
The hosts took an early lead in the 7th minute after capitalising on a misplaced pass from UCU’s Jane Nantongo, allowing the She Kasese attackers to combine neatly for the opening goal.
A particularly alarming case involved a student who took crystal meth and spent two days playing PlayStation nonstop. “He blacked out and only woke up the next day in the afternoon,” said another student who witnessed the incident.
Lukaire urges students to gain essential life skills, such as driving. “Most of us come from families where we don’t receive sufficient training in practical skills like driving or riding a motorcycle. Learn these skills and obtain a permit to avoid missing out on opportunities that may require such competencies,” he notes.
The Canons came out firing, ripping an 8‑0 opening burst, yet Livingstone’s Akris Ainomugisha (eight early points) clawed the hosts back to trail by just one at the first break, 14‑13. That was as close as it got.
