13,000 Makerere Transcripts held.....13,000 2015 Graduates to be affected

“We sensed that some marks were changed and we put a committee to investigate it. We are waiting for a report which the university management will work on accordingly. Students are receiving their transcripts. I don’t know the final detail. If you probably don’t get it, then there is a query on your transcript,” Prof Ogwang said.
 How these marks could have been changed (by students) is probably what everyone is wondering right now, but we all know what happened......the staff members in charge were bribed, it's clear, isn't it?

A (former) student from the College of Business and Management Sciences said she wasn’t given a reason why she could not get her transcript, but was asked to return next month.

“None of my colleagues has got a transcript. They said they put the issuance of transcripts on hold because there was a problem. My challenge is that I am applying for jobs with a testimonial but they keep telling me that they need a transcript,” she explained.

 “I went to Senate at the Transcripts Office to pick my transcript but I was told our college has issues so they have not started printing them. I was told that they didn’t include our internship marks while calculating the Cumulative Grade Point Average (CGPA). I wondered how then we ended up on the graduation list,” said another affected student from the College of Humanities and Social Sciences who declined to be named for fear of reprimand.

Previous incidents

This is not the first time Makerere University is suffering such a hitch. In October 2012, police arrested two officials in the office of the academic register on charges of altering students’ marks.

There had been complaints from the School of Economics and Management that examination results that had been approved by the Senate and pinned on the students’ notice boards and uploaded on the university website were different from what the school had submitted to the Senate. Little is known on what became of the investigations into the matter.

NOTE: They should learn from him before he dies otherwise he will take his secret to the grave. (This note is actually meant for you)

Other facts of life to learn from Mugabe are one should eat healthy food and stay away from junk, engage in sports and stay away from women, that`s why Mugabe stands tall and alive at 90 while 30 year olds are dying from AIDS.

So valentine’s day is gone and we have to wait for a year?

In a taxi, on my way to…..a place I could call home (of course only on valentine’s day). Someone had done something, something not good, and that wasn’t love in the air, I don’t think love smells that bad. Seemed like it wasn’t going to be my day, but on the other side, someone was waiting (I think someone was waiting, only GOD knows)
So then I’m wondering…..” ladies seem to love men that open car doors for them”, conductors are blessed then, they can have as many as they wish…I mean roses for valentine’s day. But what kind of man (ok, conductor) wants flowers? Get him a rolex, not the watch of course,…conductors can tell the time from the sun and the shadows, they certainly don’t need a watch.
I wish to remind though my brother that, valentine’s day was just 14^th , wake up, go out, make what you spent, and back to rolex, no chicken tonight. If your gift was a phone, then think about airtime and MBs, a car is to fuel, dress to shoes, and TV to subscription, just the same way. Stand warned bro….ensi egumire guy.
Hopefully you were careful enough, so we won’t be worried of junior being born in your “unemployment” time of life, it’s just not good. But if that’s what it is, then think about maturing, prematurely. It works. It has worked for many…..9 months down and you are Taata Junior, or at worst Ssalongo. Think about it, you don’t have to share your thoughts, but maybe someone needs them.
NOTE: If you are looking for Mr. Right, just drag that guy on your left to your right, or just move to his left. The reverse is true for Gents.

No man in the Mweruka tape.......? Nambooze disappointed

Former Bukedde Employee and Mukono Municipality MP Betty Nambooze is an unhappy woman after her 2MBS were wasted when she downloaded Sanyu Mweruka’s sextape. I read that at www.howwe.biz . just to stay safe, you know what people in such positions can do to bloggers like me for that, sue.
“She enjoyed it but only was disappointed because she couldn't see the man's face. That would have probably made the session so much better.”
The vocal MP apparently was heard asking friends, “Why am I not seeing a man’s face? It takes two to tangle...So why??” “I thought this issue touches two people … abakazi tukyali bubbi mu society … already we are becoming victims of Facebook … two (three) are ready in the obscene gutter,” -- she reportedly fumed.
Im thinking someone should inform Fr. Lok about this. It is illegal to watch that video, just like it is to share it., it is even worse to share it, watch it, and talk about it…..publicly.

Mbu she also said : “Nobody is talking about the men in the videos … everyone is talking about the women!”….what would they say about the men surely?? Just wondering. You are probably wondering as well, why not comment with what you think….or maybe you don’t have enough time, for which I would say have a good time, see you tomorrow.
No, just before I leave, I heard Mweruka was sucked……you could apply for that job, you must be fluent in Luganda and able to sing though, you don’t just read the news at bukedde(check sp), you sing.

Bebecool awards or Hipipo awards?????

“The (Bebe cool) fans decide” ……..in the  annual HiPipo music awards. Don’t  wonder anymore which “group” of fans decide.

We have labeled HiPipo Music Awards as a Public Relations machinery for Bebe Cool  and his “family”. And every year, the Gagamel boss scoops these awards with practiced ease. Did we expect change this year? Of course not…..well personally not.

Wasn’t  Eddie Kenzo’s ‘Sitya Loss’ your song of the year, and the singer your artist of the year (thus covering male artist of the year)?……..forgive my inquisitiveness (check spelling) if you are a bebe fan, we are all bebe fans (well just sometimes). ….That’s only when we are playing music, and not listening to it….which is for some reason rare for some of you.

Makerere 600 fake degrees??? WTH?

Makerere produces 600 “Chinese ” degrees, my friend likes to call them chinese….everything attributed to fake is Chinese, the phones, the TV sets, …all the other products, you know them, you have them.
On as serious note, 600 is such a big number, this year’s MUK graduates, me inclusive, will have trouble out there. And this article is rather disturbing, you pay tuition for three or four years, you sturdy hard, and for some reason you get to this.
Are you one of us? Oh, I should say sorry, it’s certainly going to affect you…..looks like it has already affected some of us, I’m I not supposed to be at some big organization (say MTN), managing their servers? And you, are you not supposed to be at KCCA? Think about it.
NOTE: There’s lots of grammatical errors, some of which have been left to test your grammar. Deal with it, if you can’t I suggest you apply to me for the job (editor)….that’s if you are not under-qualified, or at worst over-qualified.

Note:
The university's academic registrar has written to all department heads requesting information about how marks and graduation lists may have been altered.
"It spoils the reputation of the university," said one student. "It's unfair to the people that actually graduated on merit. Read more at http://www.bbc.com/news/world-africa-31426654

The famous Mugabe fall....27 Guards suspended

According to Zimbabwe's The Standard up to 27 members of the presidential security and advance team have been suspended. The president just doesn’t fall, that way, and you look on. They should have predicted and prevented it. For instance, one should have warned him he would fall, or help him tight just before he kissed the ground. I’m thinking these are among the roles of a presidential guard…..not just every president though, just the one and only.
Why I’m I even writing about this? Anyone can fall….just anyone, well maybe not that way, and maybe no president has fallen that way. It hasn’t happened to any president in Uganda since I was born……damn, it’s just one president.
Did the president take some Cavoda pink? Is that stuff even alcoholic? I just see it in music videos (only hiphop for some reason), I’m rare in bars or super markets, I only go there once in a long while anyway…..what would a blogger like me do there, bloggers are economists…..well most of them are, not because they want to save, they just don’t have to spend.
The president just fell, it was an accident, what does that have to do with the guards. Now I’m imagining what will happen to our guards here if that happens to our beloved, just imagine it. And don’t comment your imagination, I still want to blog.
I like this Mugabe fall thing much I would create another blog just for it, but my battery is down…..how about you donate and I buy myself a new one. Think about it
