The event was attended by key district and university officials, including the Resident District Commissioner (RDC) of Kikuube, the Chief Administrative Officer (CAO), and the District Education Officer (DEO), alongside the University Secretary, the University Public Relations Officer and nine BSU staff members.
In his remarks as Guest of Honour, the RDC commended BSU for its contribution to job creation through skills-based training in Kikuube District and across the country. He further encouraged university stakeholders to consider establishing a branch campus in the district to expand access to education and skills development.
