Even those bigger schools where you want to be posted started small with few learners,\u201d Mr<\/p>\n<p>Mulindwa, a former Biology teacher was officiating at the 31st annual convention of Uganda Muslim Teachers\u2019 Association ( UMTA) at Masaka Secondary School on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>At the same function, UMTA members changed leadership replacing Haji Bruhan Mugerwa, the head teacher of Kawempe Muslim SS with Haji Musa Mpungu, the head teacher Masaka SS as UMTA chairperson.<\/p>\n<p>Haji Mugerwa urged the new office bearers to carry forward programmes of UMTA including constructing a resource centre and UMTA home.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have already concluded negotiations with Bweyogerere SS management on the one acre piece of land donated to UMTA and we pray that the new executive will develop it for the benefit of all members,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The Resident City Commissioner in charge of Kimaanya \/Kabonera Municipality in Masaka City, Mr Ahmed Kateregga Musaazi, who also attended the convention, urged Muslim teachers to concentrate on the objectives of their association to ensure continuous improvement in the academic performance of their schools.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am happy that the differences in the Muslim community don\u2019t extend to associations like UMTA. This is a good gesture you must uphold because you serve a wider community which expects good results not excuses,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>UMTA, established in 1989 aims at uniting all Muslim teachers in Uganda and mobilising the Muslim community to educate their children.
