The first session of Makerere University’s 72nd graduation ceremony yesterday offered us unique, yet inspiring stories of women breaking the proverbial glass ceiling.
Dr Ritah Bakesiima Ssozi, 29, was the youngest PhD graduant after she was awarded a Doctorate in Reproductive Health. Close to her was Dr Olivia Nabawanda, 31, who took home a Doctorate in Mathematics.
To crown this was Dr Caroline Adoch, who was awarded the Doctorate of Laws, being the first female to achieve the feat in the university’s history.
