Mr Denis Lukaya who has been the Public Relations Officer (PRO) at Mbarara University of Science and Technology (MUST) has successfully been replaced and handed over the office to Ms Angela Nakato.
Mr Denis served as PRO since 2nd June 2011 in the regime of Prof Kayanja as the Vice chancellor, but his regime had alot of challenges that almost cost him his job. It should be recalled that Mr Denis was suspended in June 2019 for allegedly attacking MUST vice chancellor Prof Celestino Obua during the time when MUST staff were protesting against how the Prof was managing the University.

“I wish my replacement at public relations a good tour of duty and pledge to support whenever my expertise is needed. It is a pleasure to handover office and am proud to have served two Vice chancellors. I thank you all it has been a pleasure to serve MUST as PRO.” Mr Denis said.
