KABALE – A section of students at Uganda Christian University, Bishop Barham University College in Kabale District have been forced to return home as promised Scholarships Fail to Materialize.
Affected students that include, Isaac Ampuria, a first-year student pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in Education, along with Sadas Owamani, America Natukunda, Ebo Atukunda, and Nelson Nankunda claim that the university assured them a 50% tuition scholarship during the marketing phase, but unfortunately, those promises have not materialized.
The disillusioned students, numbering around 200, are now facing uncertainty and financial challenges, leading some of them to return home as they see no hope of receiving the promised tuition support.
