October 10, 2025 — The MUBS Languages Club held a handover ceremony on October 10, 2025, marking the transition between outgoing and incoming club leaders across the different language groups.

Mr. Don Patrick Bujingo, patron of the French Club, encouraged students to value humble beginnings and maximize their language-learning opportunities.
Meanwhile, Dr. Rayisi, patron of the Kiswahili Club, praised the growing interest in language studies, calling languages the “pillars of communication.”
The ceremony concluded with a renewed commitment from both outgoing and incoming leaders to promote language learning, cultural exchange, and leadership within the MUBS community.
