Last year, the story of a one Sharon Mbabazi, a University student from Muteesa I University who ventured into bricklaying to pay her university tuition fees and fund her campus life made headlines.
On Saturday last week, Mbabazi graduated with a Bachelors’ Degree in Mass Communication and Journalism from the same University and the news of her graduation was met with much enthusiasm from the public as everyone was congratulating her for her perseverance and all effort she put in. She was particularly on Cloud 9.
Today, Mbabazi must be on cloud 10, as she has been offered a partial scholarship by Victoria University Vice Chancellor Associate Prof Krishna N. Sharma to pursue a Masters Degree in Public Administration and Management in the Victoria University in the March intake.
Because Mbabazi’s lifestyle defies gender and cultural bias, Rotarian Kabyanga Milly Felix has also offered to pay part of her fees.
