THE National Social Security Fund (NSSF) managing director, Richard Byarugaba, has advised university students to develop a culture of saving to invest in income-generating activities.

“Be focused and pursue your dreams and always develop a culture of saving money in order to invest,” Byarugaba said.
He advised the working class not to settle for only one degree but to go for further studies including masters in business administration.

Byarugaba was speaking at a dinner organised by the Muljibhai Madhvani Foundation Alumni Association in Kampala over the weekend.

Byarugaba, who took over the slippery NSSF top job in September, said he would create medical insurance and housing to expand the fund’s investment.
