.@ProfNawangwe: "Your Excellency, and Maama Janet Museveni, the 20th of September was probably the saddest day in the history of Makerere University. In the early morning of that fateful day, our iconic main administration building was gutted by fire. When I arrived at the scene with my wife Susan a few minutes after midnight, it seemed like the end of the World."
