As Kwame Nkrumah said, African problems require African solutions. Today, youth problems require youthful solutions!
Long speeches won't always reach young people but art, poetry, drama, and dance will deliver the message loud and clear
Proud to have been part of the Teko Show!

I am honored to be joining @HopestoneUg as the Guest of Honor for the TEKO Dance Show (2nd Show) at the National Theatre today!
Under the theme "AWAKEN!!!", this event is a powerful call to action for youth empowerment and health awareness.

Honored to have attended the Nkrumah Day Public Lecture. Inspiring insights on how African youth can drive self-reliance and transformation.

Representing the Chief Guest Rt. Hon. @DrCWCBKiyonga, and reading his remarks verbatim, Dr. Charles Kahigiriza framed the event as an act of ideological renewal.
Regarding leadership, Rt. Hon. Dr. Kiyonga said that while the previous generation won politically, the current generation must add onto the win by focusing on economic and technological advancement.
He took the conversation a notch higher by saying "Leadership today can no longer be measured solely by political titles or parliamentary seats," adding it requires "intellectual courage.”
This, he noted, includes limiting the wholesale import of solutions without adapting them to African realities.

Joseph Ssekabira, the Chairman @Nkrumah_Hall, framed his Hall as a symbol of an enduring legacy rather than just a physical structure.
He challenged students to embody Kwame Nkrumah's vision of self-reliance by rejecting dependency and taking immediate responsibility for their country and University.
"Leadership begins the moment you decide that the condition of your country, your university, is your responsibility and not someone else's."

The Speaker of Parliament, Rt. Hon. Jacob Marksons Oboth, has called upon young people to embrace education, innovation, and integrity as they confront the challenges of unemployment, poverty, inequality, and exclusion.
Speaking as Guest of Honour at the Makerere University "Run the Hills for the Future" Marathon, the Speaker, himself a former Makerere University student and resident of University Hall, noted that the marathon's theme serves as a reminder that every worthwhile achievement requires determination and perseverance.
He commended Makerere University and its Endowment Fund for utilising the marathon to support the Disability Support Unit and economically disadvantaged students, observing that every kilometre run should contribute to health, education, inclusion, and opportunity.
