He commended the management of King Ceasor University for the remarkable progress they have made in establishing a reputable academic institution, noting that the university is now better positioned for continued growth. He challenged the leadership to invest in groundbreaking research and innovation to tackle pressing national and continental challenges.

Tayebwa also lauded the university’s founder, Ceasor Mulenga, for his vision and commitment to education. “It takes a generous and futuristic mindset to dedicate 27 acres of prime land in the heart of Kampala to education rather than commercial ventures,” he remarked. “This investment will benefit generations to come.”
