Makerere University Concerned As Threats On Dr. Spire’s Life Mount

Makerere University Academic Staff Association (MUASA) has expressed worry over threats on the life of one of its members Dr. Jimmy Spire Ssentongo.
MUASA said in a statement on Wednesday that it takes the threats on Dr. Spire’s life seriously cognizant of recent reports of detention of people.
“Any attack on Dr. Ssentongo’s academic freedom is an attack on the academic freedom of all the members of MUASA and other academics in the world,” the statement reads in part.
MUASA continued to demand that the inspector general of police ensures that Dr. Spire is protected from any threats to his life and work.
The fresh threats on Spire’s life follow the Uganda Parliament Exhibition that he has been spearheading in the past weeks.
