As we reflect upon our time at Kigezi College Butobere Siniya, it is important to acknowledge the significant impact it has had on our personal and academic development.

Their dedication and commitment to our growth have shaped us into the individuals we are today. Their tireless efforts have not gone unnoticed, and it is important to express our appreciation for their contributions.
Through his non stop stories I remembered my most memorable encounter with Barugafar. As we always did, together with friends, we had taken refuge from the ruthless Kabale coldness by dodging class and attending to the “Equator” behind the Laboratories near Lumumba B Dormitory. No sooner had we settled there than a frantic rush of boys in blue sweaters signalled danger. Back then I had some traits of “YOU KNOW ME SITYA DANGER” and in that spirit I sought to find our who was causing commotion. With my left eye slowly going beyond the wall i noticed the unmistakably tall Barugafar coming towards my side.

The Ugandan Secondary Schools Sports Association Ball Games II 2022 Volleyball rankings are out with the Boys being led by the defending champion Standard High School Zana- STAHIZA and the girls led by St. Elizabeth Girls School from Mbarara.
The Pool G impressive leader Kigezi College Butobere – Siniya completed its trip in style by thrashing Ntare School 2:0 to the 10th spot. Ntare School ended up in 12th.
As a Games teacher, he had a way of being professional. I always helped him to mark the football pitch, clearly practicing all the mathematical construction lessons on those curves, circles and right angles.
He once tried to introduce a game for us who were not so talented in the main games. We would throw plastic plates as improvised tools in the throw and catch game. Those plates would glide and dodge the ones trying to catch them and because many participated in that “silly game”, it was always an evening spectacle. An all inclusive activity especially for lower classes of Form 1 (S1) and Form 2 (S2).
Lt. Col. Namanya, an OB of 1984-1990 and a brother to another Musiniya & former Head Prefect Nkwasiibwe Benson Rwebandira aka Nkwaben is our topic this time.
The genius in him, like any other alumni of the only Siniya, just couldn’t go unnoticed at the Senior Command Course that was completed on 30th June 2022 at Kimaka where he was the best all rounder student.
