The buildings were destroyed and the working relationship between the administration and the students was poor. But now it is improving with the setting up of the students leadership body,” Oryema said.The college is one of the oldest schools in northern Uganda which has produced prominent personalities in the country. Oryema said the money will be raised through fundraising functions organised with the assistance of the old boys of the school. Ends
