It’s public secret that Muk is filled with not only academic maestros but with also academic gamblers who by luck, hook or crook, found themselves inside the Muk territories. Such students have been fed on the bread of cheating. Cheating has become part of their DNA.
It’s not strange to see, an invigilator catch a student “in flagrante delicto” with a 90 paged handout smuggled into the examination room. Other times it would be a student consulting Google. Upon being cornered, cheating students were known to react push the old invigilator out of the way and run for their dear life… mercenaries are known to run away upon being identified as non students.
This cheating methodology is doomed! MUK admin without warning has introduced armed guards, sons of Kayihura (read Police), dressed in the black anti riot uniform to ‘invigilate’ the ongoing examination process. They’re assisted by other unarmed but gigantic men (call them bouncers). It appears, clubs are renting out their bouncers to act as security, they’re enough, over 3 in every exam room. Two watching the faculty compound and one guarding vehicles.
But the administration insists this tight security is meant to guard the students’ property. “Often students would lose their side mirrors and their handbags as idle and sinister elements had a field day of illegal shopping,” an administrator who declined to reveal his identity told the buzzing Campusbee.
“It’s working ,they frisk you all over your body and don’t even allow wallets. It’s inconveniencing but worth it. ” said Moze, a 2nd CEDAT student doing mechanical Engineering.
Atukwase Ronald is seemingly happy with the introduction of police to inspect exams.”It is very okay with me because they [police] don’t know how to differentiate a fake and an original examination permit. They don’t know how to differentiate between “Due to you” and “Due to us’.” He happily told this website.
The same force has been reported all over the faculties and they seem to have a rotation program for each time, there are new faces.
However some students want to strike citing the new exam force is defiling their Privates in the process. “Batu checkinga bubi (they check us badly), they even knock around your delicate balls,” added a certain fresher Nicholas. Just like Miss Uganda, we hope the army doesn’t fully take over Muk.
