A former Makerere University student has committed suicide over unemployment.
Residents of Bulo in Butambala district were left in shock when they found the body of Asuman Musoke, 23, hanging on a noose last evening.
The young man who recently completed a BCOM degree from Makerere University hanged himself in the dining room of his mother’s house.
He left a note that read, “I decided to hang myself because there are no jobs in Uganda and we are suffering as the youth. I am tired of this and can’t take it anymore.”
At BigEyeUg we encourage youths to find income generating activities that they can engage themselves in other than waiting for government to create jobs for them. Agriculture, IT and other fields have many opportunities for the youth who are willing to work.
We will keep you posted.
