Jessica Alupo, the Prime Minister, Hon. Nabbanja Robbinah, and the Speaker of Parliament, Anita Amongi, among others.

UCU Students talk about the significance of Martyrs’ Day

3rd June in Uganda is celebrated as Martyrs’ Day, when we remember a group of young Christians who died for their faith in Namugongo. We honor them for their faith and belief in Jesus Christ. As this day draws closer, we see many people walking from long distances to Namugongo in a bid to celebrate this day. The pilgrims come not only from Uganda but from Africa and the rest of the world. We spoke to some students about the significance of this day in their lives, and this is what they had to say.
