I am the change On Monday 7th February 2022, Makerere University students decided to go up in arms to protest against the continued online learning that was meant to be an alternative in the lock down but continues to be enforced by the University even amidst full re-opening of the economy by H.E Yoweri Kaguta Museveni. Not only is online learning learning expensive for the students due to the high data rates but also causes social isolation which negatively impacts of the mental health of students. Furthermore, student face challenges such as inaccessibility of a stable Internet connection around campus and some students don't have smart phone or laptops to help them learn online In Picture: a student who decided to peacefully protest against the continued online classes braves a confrontation braves out a confrontation with a police officer who tries to make him stand down forcing him to roll up his placard.
