The Uganda Young Democrats (UYD) candidate in the Makerere guild presidential race, Ms. Sarah Aseru has said she is not NRM, though her father is.

There have been rumours that Aseru, a daughter to State minister for local government, Alex Onzima belongs to the National Resistance Movement just like her father.

Responding to a question from fellow candidate, independent Nicholas Nanyenya, at the Guild Presidential Candidates’ Debate at Makerere University Main Hall, Aseru said that though she has a relationship with NRM, she chose a different path.

Four students of Makerere University were on March 6th injured in an accident along Stuart Road just, a few meters outside Lumumba Hall.

The over speeding car, registration number UAQ 660/Mrammed into a group of about 100 students who were escorting Bwowe Ivan Kakungulu (in poster), an independent candidate in an after-rally drive, heading to areas of Wandegeya, Kikoni, KikumiKikumi and Nakulabye.

The Makerere university police commander OC JacksonMucunguzi says the culprit deliberately drove into a mass of students for reasons well known to him.

The office of the Academic Registrar and the board for the School of Computing and Informatics Technology will today Friday, March 7th meet to decide whether Andrew Mujinya, the Forum for Democratic Change candidate is eligible for election as Makerere’s next guild president.

Mujinya’s troubles follow a petition by Lillian Aber, who lost to Mujinya in the quest for the FDC ticket.

The trouble, according to Aber was that Mujinya had a retake and was therefore not fit as for election as guild president as per the rules governing guild elections.
