In his keynote address, Mr. Bernard Paul Mono, the Acting Director General of the East Africa Development Bank, challenged graduates to leverage their skills to transform communities.

“Stay informed, remain resilient to overcome challenges, and give value to the community. The best days are ahead of you,” he told the Class of 2025.

The Chancellor, H.E. Jonathan, in his moving speech, described education as the “compass to a brighter tomorrow,” urging graduates to lead with both integrity and compassion.

“Go forth and be the progress the world so desperately needs. Lead not just with your minds, but with hearts. The future is yours to shape,” he said, drawing thunderous applause from the graduates and their families.

Vice Chancellor Dr. Olive Sabiiti called on the fresh alumni to embrace entrepreneurship and ethical leadership, highlighting knowledge, competence, relationships, and reputation as the building blocks for lasting impact.
