After Police ruled out technical faults in electrical wiring to be the cause of the double fires at Gayaza High School on Friday and Sunday, it is widely believed that someone must have started the fire that gutted two dormitories at the oldest all-girls boarding secondary school in Uganda.
Sources that preferred anonymity reveled to the Daily Monitor that there are administrative wrangles going on at Gayaza High School and that this must be reason that prompted the yet-to-be-identified individuals to burn down the dormitories.
The distressed parties in the wrangles are believed to have set the dormitories ablaze in an effort to make the school unmanageable, the same way two people may be fighting for a glass and one decides to break it so the other doesn’t use it, only that in this case it is the innocent students that were affected the most for they lost their property.
In a move to commiserate with the students, the Buganda Kingdom Finance Minister Robert Waggwa Nsibirwa has donated 60 mattresses and blankets to the affected students.
