You are stronger than you think.

The current state of Lake Victoria Primary School in Entebbe is tear-inducing 😢 Formerly known as the European Primary School, it only accommodated children of the colonial elite but would later evolve to accommodate natives after independence, hence the name change to Lake Victoria PS. Today, this school which has nurtured many influential people in government and Uganda's society at large has been reduced to a goat pen and grazing ground. The classrooms and other school structures have not experienced any major rehabilitation or upgrade since the lowering of the union jack in 1962. The concerned authorities can't claim that they are not aware of the school's crumbling state because most of them either studied there or drive past it everyday on their way to work. Perhaps this intentional ignorance lends credibility to rumblings that some big people want the school to collapse and then pounce on its well situated land. The Headteacher of the school is a renown if not notorious NRM Cadre, Mr. Steven Nabenda. Amongst the PTA and general public, he has earned a reputation of being arrogant, uncompromising and outright disrespectful to anyone with an alternative view about how the affairs of the school should be run. Apparently he owns some of the livestock that currently calls the school premises home. As an inhabitant and parliamentary representative of Entebbe, it hurts me to see this once prestigious and historical school wither away under the stewardship of incompetence. I will continue doing everything in my power to ensure this school gets the help it deserves, because clearly not everyone seems to care. ✍️ KMM
