“Now that you have graduated, do not expect life on a silver platter. Look out for the opportunities even with the little money you might have,” he told the graduands who completed degrees in Law, Engineering as well as Commerce from Makerere, Uganda Christian University, Kyambogo University as well as Mbarara University of Science and Technology. “I came from a very poor background so I know what it means to grow up in the village and struggle. You can make it. Everyone can make it. Do not sit there and expect jobs from the government.”
His message was echoed by Sheema South Member of Parliament Yorokamu Katwiremu Bategana, who advised Ugandan youth to change their work ethic in order to succeed in life.
“We need to stop the culture of begging. Now that you have completed university, use your brains and hands to better yourself,” he said. Dr Muhairwe also called upon well-wishers to support the fund so that more bright students are helped. Already, the second batch of beneficiaries has enrolled at different universities across the country.
