By Ramadhan Ggoobi

Congratulations to all my students graduating today at Makerere University. Like I used to tell you in our lectures, the best investment one can make is education. Education is the most reliable “opportunity equalizer”.

Your lives will never be the same again: you are likely to live longer, happier, and affluently. Don’t worry about the few jobs available now.

Education is not about jobs; it’s about the life skills we gain that keep us alive and make us more productive. In any case, it wouldn’t be logical to first wait for the jobs to be created and then go to school. Now you qualify to be ‘unemployed’ having graduated from being ‘unemployable’. Now go make money.

Don’t rush to get married. First make money. Let no one put you on pressure, for they won’t live your life. You will. When you start making money, don’t forget this is Africa.

In Africa we look after our parents when they age. Give them a little bit of it and more care. They’ve sacrificed a lot to see you through the journey.

Remember you’ve just joined less than 1% of Ugandans with that certificate! Don’t ever stop thanking your parents/guardians for propelling you into that small group. Congs again.

Yours, …..
