The Kyambogo Years (1990 – 1993)
6 The Kyambogo Years (1990 – 1993) My Years as Principal of the Institute of Teacher Education – The Unplanned Training for the Big Shoes Soon after the departure of Professor Kajubi, the first Principal, ITEK plunged into a serious crisis, the cause of which seemed to have been staff agitation for a living wage and the subsequent death of one of them under mysterious circumstances. As a result of those incidents, the institute had been receiving bad press for a good part of 1990. Apparently, some disgruntled staff had taken a leaf out of MUASA’s book and had formed an academic staff association they decided to call Institute of Teacher Education Academic Staff Association (ITEASA), which was quite a militant group. When Professor Kajubi left for Makerere after serving for two years as Principal, his deputy, Dr John Bigala remained acting in his stead. Hell broke loose when the acting Principal received a request from the National Police Commissar to nominate some members of staff of ITEK to participate in a political education course, popularly known as the cadre course, at Kyankwanzi in Kiboga District. At the time, it was routine for Government to direct civil servants to go for the cadre course at Kyankwanzi or at some other location. Regardless of rank, all Government officials had to attend the cadre course. The courses were numbered and the course number appeared on one’s certificate of attendance. In what I think was a rushed judgement, the ITEK Administration decided to select some of the more militant members of ITEASA for the course, perhaps in the hope that, after attending the cadre course, they would tone down their militancy. -

Fifty-six years ago, the first of us went to East Africa to teach. We went before the Peace Corps teachers – we are their proud predecessors! More than 600 of us went in the next ten years. In 1999, Ed Schmidt decided to find us all, and in two years he had located more than 400 of us. We are can-do folks. Our first reunion/conference was held in Washington DC only nine days after the 9/11 attacks. About 130 of us came to that stunned city. The Peace Corps had planned its 40th reunion for that same weekend. They cancelled, but we came. In 2015, at the Minneapolis Reunion, TEAAers voted to make the 2017 Reunion our last in-person gathering. -

Impact of the Black Twig Borer on Robusta Coffee in Mukono and Kayunga Districts, Central Uganda
Journal of Animal & Plant Sciences, 2009. Vol. 3, Issue 1: 163 - 169. Publication date: 15 May 2009, http://www.biosciences.elewa.org/JAPS; ISSN 2071 - 7024 JAPS Impact of the black twig borer on Robusta coffee in Mukono and Kayunga districts, central Uganda Egonyu JP 1§, Kucel P 1, Kangire A 1, Sewaya F 2. and Nkugwa C 2 1National Crops Resources Research Institute (NaCRRI)/Coffee Research Centre (COREC), P.O Box 185, Mukono, Uganda; Uganda Coffee Development Authority, P.O. Box 7267, Kampala, Uganda § Corresponding author email: [email protected] Key words: Black twig borer, coffee, incidence, damage 1 SUMMARY An outbreak of a “serious” pest of coffee was reported in Mukono and Kayunga districts in central Uganda in December 2008. In response, a survey was carried out in the two districts to determine the identity, spread, incidence and damage caused by the pest. The pest was preliminarily identified as the black twig borer, Xylosandrus compactus (Eichhoff), which was found on coffee in both districts infesting 37.5% of the surveyed Robusta coffee farms. The infestation in Mukono was higher than in Kayunga, being 50 and 8.3%, respectively. The percentage of trees attacked (incidence) in the two districts was 21.2, with 3.7% of their twigs bored (damaged). Mukono district had a much higher incidence (35.3%) and damage (4.9%) compared to Kayunga with 0.8% for both parameters. The most serious damage was recorded in Namuganga and Nabbaale subcounties in Mukono district, the apparent epicentre of the outbreak. It was evident that the pest was spreading to other subcounties surveyed within and outside Mukono district. -
