Accounting and Finance – The Standard Digital

Amidst the both serene and busy landscape of Northern Uganda lies the Uganda Christian University (UCU) Arua Campus, a center of excellence in the heart of Africa. Beneath the tranquil setting of the campus lies a bitter chapter in Uganda’s history, etched with the scars of conflict and the yearning for peace.

The leadership journey that Nkurunungi Seth Niwabiine started in May 2023 was not for the fainthearted. His courage was resolute. With faith, he forged challenges.

Vincent Kisenyi, the director of academic affairs at UCU, highlighted the project’s unique approach, emphasising the fusion of classwork with hands-on, practical experiences. “Students are able to engage in renewable energy businesses while conserving the climate,” added Kisenyi.

Today, Uganda Christian University (UCU) officially closed the highly successful DALILA project after three years since it was launched. This was during a closing conference held at the UCU Main Campus in Mukono, which was graced by the Deputy Vice Chancellor of Finance and Administration, Mr.David Mugawe.

The Church of Uganda is celebrating two milestones. The double commemoration is about East Busoga, Uganda’s newest diocese, which was inaugurated on November 19, 2023, and, the same event, the consecration of Rt. Rev. Paul Hannington Suubi and his enthronment as its first bishop. East Busoga became the country’s 39th diocese of the Anglican Church after approval by the provincial assembly in August 2022.

Tough. Tense. Lucky. Diligent. That is how one would sum up the educational journey of Douglas Agaba, an October 2021 Uganda Christian University (UCU) graduate with a First-Class Degree in Bachelor of Science in Accounting and Finance.
