Former Miss Uganda Hannah Karema Tumukunde has conceded defeat in the recently held Makerere University Kampala guild presidential election.
On Thursday 9th April 2026, Gracious Kadondi was voted the 92nd Guild President of Makerere University, securing the institution’s most powerful student leadership seat on the NUP ticket.
Gracious Kadondi
Her immediate competitor was Hannah Karema who gained massive support due to her proposed policies and her fame in the entertainment industry.
Via social media, Karema on Friday morning thanked her voters for the faith entrusted to her. She noted that numbers she garnered spoke out about her leadership endeavours and she now embarks on her next plans.
Dear Rebooters, I want to extend my sincere appreciation to you for believing in my candidature and for championing our agenda of Rebooting the Ivory Tower.
The numbers we garnered spoke for the kind of leadership Makerereans envision; one that advocates for their welfare, academic and social privileges.
This is not the end nor the beginning. It is the end of the beginning. It’s the time for us to recollect ourselves and continue to offer selfless service through other available avenues.
We will keep pushing to reboot Uganda’s education system.
Onto the next!
