President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni officially opened the re-constructed Makerere University<\/a>\u2019s iconic Main Building, and installed Dr. Crispus Kiyonga as the new Chancellor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event held at Makerere University<\/a>\u2019s Freedom Square, was presided over by President Museveni, the university\u2019s Visitor, alongside First Lady, Hon Janet Kataaha Museveni, who is also the Minister of Education and Sports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Several dignitaries attended the ceremony, including former Chancellors, Vice Chancellors, members of the University Council, administration, development partners, a delegation from the University of Bergen in Norway as well as alumni of Makerere University<\/a>. The reopening of the main building comes four years after a disastrous fire that resulted from a short circuit destroyed the building in September 2020.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking at the event, President Museveni congratulated the university for getting back the building which has been funded by the government of Uganda. He added that his initial concerns about the potential loss of student records, but he was relieved when he was reassured by the Vice-Chancellor Professor Barnabas Nawangwe that the records were safe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhen this unfortunate incident happened, as Professor Nawangwe said, my main concern was the records of the students. For the building, we could construct a new one, and we have constructed it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n

The reconstruction preserved the building\u2019s historic exterior while modernizing the interior to enhance safety and accessibility. Traditional wooden floors were replaced with tiles and terrazzo, and pathways for persons with disabilities were added. The building also features more durable concrete walls, fire detection and fighting equipment, and a restored bell that rings every hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

President Museveni also congratulated the university on appointing Dr. Crispus Kiyonga as Chancellor, succeeding Prof. Ezra Suruma. He praised Dr. Kiyonga as a longstanding and key figure in the National Resistance Movement (NRM).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cSecondly, I want to congratulate you on having a new chancellor, in the person of Dr. Crispus Kiyonga. He is an outstanding cadre and leader of the NRM. He is a member of the central executive committee and has been very active in our efforts since 1980 when we were involved with UPM, so I congratulate him and I congratulate the University,\u201d The President said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The President explained the fundamental role of some disciplines at Makerere University<\/a> such as Food Science and Quantitative economics. He also underscored the relevance of science disciplines to national development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hon. Janet Museveni, the Minister of Education thanked President Museveni for his swift response when Makerere\u2019s ivory tower was destroyed by the fire. She also commended the President for providing funds for the renovation of the students\u2019 halls of residence<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOn behalf of the education sector, I thank you, Your Excellency, for your immediate directive to fund the restoration of the iconic building and other critical projects at Makerere including the students\u2019 residences following a request from the University Council. Your timely intervention, Mr. President underscores your unwavering support for the higher education sector and Makerere University<\/a> in particular,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Kiyonga expressed gratitude for his appointment and emphasized his commitment to strengthening ties between the university, government, and the broader community. He promised to work closely with Vice Chancellor, Prof. Nawangwe and other stakeholders to align Makerere University<\/a>\u2019s research with Uganda\u2019s development agenda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mrs. Lorna Magara, the Chairperson of the University Council, thanked the government for funding several projects at Makerere, including the restoration of the main building, the construction of the new building for the Law School, and the renovation of halls of residence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe restoration of the main building strongly symbolizes the government\u2019s commitment to investing in Makerere University<\/a> and indeed the education sector. In addition to the main building, the government has generously funded several infrastructural projects including the construction of the School of Law new building, the school of dentistry, the renovation of Lumumba Hall, the wall around the university, and several others,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe extend our heartfelt appreciation to the ministry of finance, planning and economic development for implementing the president\u2019s directive and providing the necessary funding for these critical projects,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Vice Chancellor, Prof.  Nawangwe, thanked the President for swiftly approving the release of funds for the restoration of the building after he had presented the case to the Cabinet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He also highlighted that the basement of the restored building will be reserved for a museum, and the university hopes to host the Luweero War Memorial Museum in this space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Prof. Henry Alinaitwe and I, came to the Cabinet to explain the cause of the fire, you guided the Cabinet to immediately approve the release of the 21 billion shillings that were required to reconstruct the building. Your excellency and Mama Janet, this afternoon, we have just re-opened the reconstructed main building, and the building is entirely funded by the government of Uganda,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Vice-Chancellor also used the opportunity to request the President that the government provides Makerere University<\/a> with a road maintenance unit under the National District Road Maintenance Program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He explained that such a unit would allow engineering students to gain practical experience by maintaining university roads and those in nearby communities. This initiative, he added, would contribute to producing well-trained engineers who could strengthen the construction industry in Uganda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe wish to enhance the training of our engineers through advanced technical and business development skills so that they can compete with international firms. We therefore request for your support, Your Excellency to consider Makerere University<\/a> in form of a district for the allocation of a road maintenance unit as part of the district road maintenance unit program,\u201d he requested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWith this unit we would be able to train our students by maintaining the university\u2019s roads and the roads of the surrounding communities. The ultimate aim is to produce engineers who will build strong constructing firms for our country. I pray that this proposal is given consideration in the next financial year budget.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In response, President Museveni welcomed the idea and offered his support, agreeing that it would provide valuable practical learning for Makerere\u2019s students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cRegarding the road unit, that is a very good idea, I will definitely support that so that you can have your own road unit to teach your engineers how to make roads and how to build practically. I totally agree with that,\u201d President Museveni said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Vice Chancellor appreciated the Mastercard Foundation for the support extended to Makerere University<\/a> when the Main Building was gutted by a fire. \u201cI received the first international call, from Reeta Roy, President of the Mastercard Foundation, who in a very short statement said: We are going to support you with one million dollars to help you recover the student records. Indeed, the seed sown by the Mastercard Foundation has transformed Makerere into one of the most digitalised universities,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Guild President, Lubega Vincent Nsamba acknowledged the President for providing funds for the reconstruction of the main building, but most importantly providing funds to renovate the different halls of residence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI thank you for the funds that have been contributed to the reconstruction of the main building, but most importantly and particularly to the renovation of halls of residence. They have completed Lumumba hall and they are now at Mary Stuart,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe extend a vote of appreciation for recognizing that need and providing funds to cater for that. This has not only contributed to the welfare of the students, and has also improved their academic life on Campus,\u201d he added. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
