Africa-Press – Uganda. Former Prime Minister, Dr Ruhakana Rugunda, has urged the new leadership of the Mwiri Old Boy’s Association (MOBA) to build upon the work done by their predecessors and ensure that Busoga College Mwiri continues on an upward trajectory.
Dr Rugunda, a former student at Busoga College Mwiri who is also the Patron of the Alumni Association (MOBA), made the call on Friday during a function at which the outgoing President, Mr Daniel Ruhweza, handed over office to the new president, Mr Daniel Mushabe alias Kakaire, during a function held at Dr Rugunda’s offices at Kingdom Kampala.
“I would like to commend the old committee for the tremendous job that they have done in putting the school to a successful trajectory. The new committee should double its efforts. It should build on the foundation laid by the old committee and drive Mwiri to the helm of Uganda’s best schools,” Dr Rugunda said.
Mr Mushabe was elected on April 20 this year during a historic election that attracted over 500 old boys to the legendary school for an Annual General Meeting of the Alumni Association. Mr Mushabe became the first MOBA president to be elected with a margin of over 200 votes.

Ordinary members of the Committee are Mr Joshua Bizimungu, Mr Demiano Masesa, Mr Benon Kigenyi, Mr Nelson Mandela, and Mr Robert Katsigazi.
Speaking after receiving the instruments of power, Mr Mushabe committed himself to committing his energies to ensure that the school is much better in the next two years.
“I am going to spend the next two years thinking and working for Mwiri. I am confident that Mwiri’s best days are still ahead of us,” Mr Mushabe said.
The new President Dr Daniel Mushabe emphasized that he’ll spend the next two years thinking and working for Mwiri and he’s confident that Mwiri’s days are still ahead of us!
During the same function Dr Rugunda, Mr Robert Kisubi, a former president of MOBA and all members of the outgoing executive of Dr Ruhweza received plaques in recognition of their services to the school.
