A HUGE thank you to the #2026MakMarathon Chief Runner, Rt. Hon. @ObothOboth, for showing up and running with us for a good cause. Your generous UGX10 million contribution will go towards equipping the Disability Support Unit and helping create better opportunities for students with disabilities at Makerere.

Our roads were awash with green and gold kits clad by thousands of runners who gathered at the Hill, some as early as 5:00 AM despite the rain, to participate in the 6th edition of @MakRun_Ug #2026MakMarathon. Together, we had a resounding message; nothing will stand in the way of our aspiration to create an inclusive campus especially for students with disabilities. We, in a special way, thank the 12th Speaker of @Parliament_Ug, Rt. Hon. @ObothOboth for graciously presiding over the event as Chief Runner. Detailed Story: news.mak.ac.ug/2026/09/maker…

The Speaker of Parliament, Rt. Hon. Jacob Marksons Oboth, has called upon young people to embrace education, innovation, and integrity as they confront the challenges of unemployment, poverty, inequality, and exclusion. Speaking as Guest of Honour at the Makerere University "Run the Hills for the Future" Marathon, the Speaker, himself a former Makerere University student and resident of University Hall, noted that the marathon's theme serves as a reminder that every worthwhile achievement requires determination and perseverance. He commended Makerere University and its Endowment Fund for utilising the marathon to support the Disability Support Unit and economically disadvantaged students, observing that every kilometre run should contribute to health, education, inclusion, and opportunity.

#2026MakMarathon Elite runners are dropping in one by one. You can tell they are built different. It’s surely a great morning @Makerere hill. The rain just gave us more energy.

The students had identified inadequate accommodation for women as a major welfare concern.
