Education in Ugandan universities is becoming very elitist and it is only the rich who will make it! What is the purpose of toiling with UPE and USE and then place a road block at the end of the journey?

It is easier for parents to foot tuition in primary and secondary schools than at university. Unfortunately, nobody seems to be bothered.
