Floods Affecting Cavendish University Students that Live in Kikuba Mutwe Slums Kabalagala

Cavendish University is one of the most recognized International Universities in Uganda.

It welcomes all students from different countries, Congo, Nigeria, Burundi, Rwanda, Somalia, among others.  It’s so absurd that most of these students are putting up in Kikuba Mutwe slums next to the university ….

This place is so rigorous for the students. The place is so insecure when it comes to climate change. You can draw your own conclusion when you happen to visit these areas. Kikuba Mutwe is ever wet not only in rainy seasons but also during dry seasons students are living in a mastery of mess.
