What others say about Faith Mubeezi

Hajji Ali Ssekitoleko, the Lubya
LC1 chairman:
“Mubeezi is a blessing to our island because her effort has made our little ones access education. Some of my children have had their lower primary education at her school. I only had to take them away after P.3. I wish the Government helps her so that her school goes up to P.7.”

Susan Apio, an elderly woman:
“I was one of the first women Mubeezi taught how to read and write.
Before she taught me, I could neither read nor write, but now I can write my name, count my money and record it. Her teaching helps me a lot in my fish trade.

Ibrahim Sebere, the Lubya information officer:
“I don’t know how to describe Mubeezi’s work for Lubya.
Calling her just kind or humanitarian is not enough, given the effort she puts in to give our island access to education.”

Azid Kaziba, an elder:
“She is like the missionaries who brought education to Africa — only she is bringing it to Lubya in a modern time.
The way Mubeezi goes out of her way to enable both the children and the women here to get some literacy makes her a saint.

Nusura Mbaine, the girl Mubeezi adopted:
“Auntie Mubeezi got me from grandmother and brought me to stay at her home.
She buys the clothes I wear, the books I use at school, and she is my teacher.
She also wants to adopt my brother who completed P.3 and is out of school.”
