Nsimire can do better

SIR — On Monday I read the story of Robert Nsimire who graduated from Makerere University with an upper second degree in statistics but is now a butcher and doing odd jobs for survival

I hope Nsimire will eventually find his level but I advise him to be more ambitious beyond mixing with butchers and wheel barrow pushers. With his education he can find better jobs, which though humble, can help him meet people who can pull him out of his dilemma.
People will generally judge you by the company you keep! It might be impossible for Nsimire to get out of his mess if he does not show more ambition beyond weighing meat. This is food for thought for Henry Kajura, the minister of public service who adores sciences. They are not a panacea!
