A meeting of staff at Makerere University Business School (Mubs) has asked the government to confirm Prof Moses Muhwezi as the substantive principal of the institution.

Mr Albert Arinda, the vice chairperson of Makerere University Business Academic Staff Association (MUBASA), said on Friday, they convened a meeting involving academic, administrative, and support staff and their representatives in the University Council to evaluate the performance of Prof Muhwezi, who has been acting for the last 15 months since Prof Waswa Balunywa's term of office expired.

He said during the meeting held at the university campus in Nakawa, the staff unanimously agreed to recommend to the government to confirm Prof Muhwezi’s appointment because of the reforms he has brought to Mubs.

"We decided that before we request for the appointment of a substantive principal, let us evaluate the acting one because he is a deputy principal and also the acting principal. The joint staff meeting evaluated him and resolved that let the acting principal be appointed to the full position of principal so that he can get a deputy," he said.
