By DAILY MONITORMore by this AuthorUgandan activist and research fellow Dr Stella Nyanzi has been fired from Makerere University in a massive ‘staff reshuffle’ that saw 45 senior academic staff shown the door. According to the vice chancellor of university Prof Barnabas Nawangwe, the majority of the staff fired absconded duty for over five years and others were involved in sexual harassment cases. Dr Nyanzi, who is on remand at Luzira Prison, is facing charges of cyber harassment and offensive communication against President Yoweri Museveni. Dr Swizen Kyomuhendo, a lecturer in School of Social Sciences, was also been dismissed. Dr Kyomuhendo got in trouble after a story run on local TV early this year implicating him for trying to sleep with his student in exchange for marks.
