Makerere University Unveils William Ruto Leadership Institute

Makerere University in Uganda on Saturday unveiled the William Ruto Institute of African and Leadership Studies in honor of Kenya's Deputy President.

DP Ruto laid a foundation stone for the institute at the university’s main campus in Kampala. The institute’s goals are to among others, develop innovative approaches to teaching and learning about Africa and enhancing and enriching intellectual and cultural life, according to a brief on the university’s website.

It will also be used to strengthen relationships between academic and indigenous intellectuals as the basis for reclaiming indigenous knowledge and integrate this into local communities.

Speaking when he held a meeting with DP Ruto at Mubende State Lodge, Kampala on Saturday, Uganda President Yoweri Museveni pledged to give $100,000 towards the construction of the institute.

“This institute would go a long way in Africans deepening their knowledge base and furthering research that would transform Africa,” said Museveni.

“If we can invest in our institutions, we can come up with solid policies that would shape our development agenda.”

William Ruto Leadership Institute of Thieving Dam Money and Land Grabbing. M7 hoping if Ruto becomes prezo he will be granted asylum by his bestie once Bobby Wine runs his behind out of town.

Well Museveni - stop looking for a future home in Kenya once your own boot you out of Uganda for corruption! The one you are bribing is so far highly marred and compromised is corruption deals in Kenya.

You could use his fake PhD in teaching your stooges corruption and political riots to keep you in power.

You may want to rethink accommodating him after 2022! Leaders like Museveni continue to make Africa and Africans look bad and a laughing stock in the eyes of the world.

The institute should be named the Institute of corruption and magendo theories teachings in Uganda. Kenyans are far ahead of your conmanship as they are now waging heavy wars against those who are corrupt. Stop thumbing us in the eye with your idiotic lunacy! We are way past that foolish stage!

Uganda must be doing so bad to glorify genocidal ethnic cleansing manic like William Ruto.

Uhuru Kenyatta and William Ruto are genocidal ethnic cleansing maniacs. They try to hide their evilness behind tribalism with zero success.

Museveni is useless and they want to keep the same corruption going. Kenyans in the lake Victoria area have been harassed by Ugandans for years on KENYAN waters and this stupid mafi government can't take a stand. we have to respect all kenyans irrespective of tribe. this is a SHAMBA STEALING DEAL
