Tabitha Apajok, a former Senior Four candidate of St. Thereza Girls Senior Secondary School Nyamigisa in Masindi district got aggregate 9 in the Uganda Certificate of Education examinations 2023.  

She attributes her success to her sister who dropped out of school to take care of them. Apajok says when her sister completed Senior Four in 2019, she began looking for jobs to take care of them.


“This performance is a reward to my sister. She has sacrificed a lot to see that my siblings and I are comfortable in school after the passing away of our father,” she says.

Apajok, who is a refugee settler, says she wants to do biology, chemistry and mathematics at A level with the aim of being a doctor.
