Abasoga Nseete has its origins in a student formation started in 1989 by Makerere university students as a forum to bring together the Basoga students then studying at Makerere University. It was later to spread to other institutions of higher learning and has been vital in rekindling the love and spirit of Busoga especially among the elite youth. In November 2014 Abasoga Nseete (AN) was duly incorporated as company Limited by Guarantee giving it a legal face and formal operational mandate.
To-date AN student’s chapter covers over 50 of higher institutions across the country, as well as non student chapters in most of the major towns of Uganda and in the Diaspora. Abasoga Nseete is now arguably the most organized and focused socio-economic formation in Busoga. We have the potential in all areas of professional expertise down to the common man in the rural villages, the urban streets and markets.
We write to position before you sir, out our Vision, Mission, Objectives and Strategies for the people and region of Busoga. We believe that this initial period is very crucial for the future success of the Abasoga Nseete and OKBB as it is intended to provide a firm foundation for the potential growth and prosperity of the two institutions.
