President Museveni has encouraged universities in Uganda to always think of producing employable and enterprising students which is the key determinant of the success for any university.

The President also warned graduands against indulging themselves in promiscuous activities that would endanger and kill their lives.

“I dont drink, I dont understand why people drink because beer is so bitter as Mululuza and then there is whiskey which just burns you. You students must strive to be disciplined”, he warned.

The President of Uganda was speaking at the 18th graduation ceremony of  Kampala International University (KIU) on Saturday June 23rd 2018.

A total of 2410 students graduated with diplomas and degrees in different disciplines.

Twenty two (22) of the graduands got first class degrees.

The Turkish envoy to Uganda, Ms. Ayse Sedef Yavuzalp, who was lead speaker at the ceremony advised graduands to gain as much international experience as possible to compete favorably for global jobs.

She commended President Museveni for the cordial relationship that exists between Uganda and Turkey and also for fighting terrorism in the country.
