Soroti University, one of the country’s youngest public Universities officially witnessed the installation of the first-ever Chancellor at the institution.

Prof. Francis Omaswa, was on Thursday installed as the first Chancellor of Soroti University.

Having held a similar position at Busitema University, the 79-year old officially took on the mantle in the presence of Soroti University stakeholders.

After assuming the office, Prof. Omaswa said that his leadership will ensure that Soroti University becomes accountable to the communities it serves. He noted that there’s a need for partnerships with other universities to make Soroti University great in Uganda and across the borders.

In his message delivered by the Vice President, Jessica Alupo, President Yoweri Museveni said that Prof. Omaswa’s leadership will enable Uganda’s vision of promoting innovation, science, and technology to address high unemployment levels in the country.
