After a tedious and chaotic election exercise, the sitting Guild President of Nkumba University, Ronah Kemirembe was in wee hours of last night declared the newly elected president of the Uganda National Students Association (UNSA). Kemirembe, who was the only lady vying for the post of President beat other 7 opponents to the ballot by 94 votes to become the UNSA President.
Some of the notable candidates that vied for the Presidential seat were; Kyambogo’s Guild President Kafuko Ian, MAK’s Tayebwa Tomson and Tashobya who all lost to the lady from Nkumba.
The Vice-President post was won by MUBS’s Vice-President Nyakuni Lillan but as the UNSA constitution stipulates, if a President is a female then for gender equality, the VP should be a male. Henceforth the post was passed on to IUIU’s Nandala Ismail who came in as second in the race for VP seat.
