To understand how today’s youth perceive the legacy of these martyrs, we spoke to some Uganda Christian University (UCU) students. Their reflections suggest that the fire of 1886 has not gone out, it has simply changed form.
As a journalist, I am not outside this reflection. Our profession is meant to speak uncomfortable truths. But we do not always succeed. The pressures are real from economic to political and sometimes to personal fears.
The event was held to welcome the first-year students to the School of Law and UCU community at large and to familiarise them with multiple systems within the university, such as UCU’s digital library and the Alpha student portal.

Precious Claire Ninsiima, 22, is the best student graduate from the October 13, 2023, ceremony. The Bachelor of Business Administration student could have joined a public university, where she was offered a scholarship, but didn’t. Her mother chose Uganda Christian University (UCU) because of its moral principles and image as a Christ-centered institution.
Walking into the gates of Uganda Christian University came with its fair share of pleasant surprises. Watching monkeys jump from one tree to another uncaged without paying a penny was truly priceless.
