Summary

Description
English: Shortly after Lumumba boys residency hall at Makerere University was opened in 1971, Idi Amin’s Soldiers invaded the neighboring ladies hall, Mary Stuart. Lumumba students who up to now call themselves elephants fought back to repulse the soldiers. It’s from here that a one Gongom lost his life and a monument was erected in his honor. The Gongom monument welded from iron is addressed as His Majesty, Highness and dressed in an attire (a graduate gown). This attire inspires students to read and work hard but is also a symbol of Unity.
