• 24 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: I, the undersigned, on behalf of parents and guardians of victims and survivors of the Kyanguli Secondary School fire tragedy, draw the attention of the House to the following: view
• 24 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: THAT, in March 2001, Kyanguli Secondary School experienced one of the worst cases of student unrest in the country when rioting students locked their colleagues in a dormitory, sprayed it with petrol and set it ablaze. view
• 24 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: THAT, the resultant inferno gutted down the entire dormitory, caused horrific deaths of 63 young, budding lives while scores of others were maimed and school property of immense value was decimated. view
• 24 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: THAT, investigations into the incident revealed massive negligence on the part of the school management, where it was established that whereas glaring signs of impending student strike had been identified, the school administration never took measures to deter the unrest. The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposes only. Acertified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor. view
• 24 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: THAT, further, whereas the capacity of the ill-fated dormitory was 96 students, the school administration had congested it with 139 students at the time of the inferno, thereby increasing the casualties. view
• 24 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: THAT, in 2002, parents and guardians of the victims and survivors sought compensation from the courts which was granted. view
• 24 Oct 2018 in National Assembly: THAT, in the High Court ruling on 3rd March 2016, the court awarded Kshs40,950,000 as compensation to the victims and survivors of the Kyanguli dormitory fire jointly and severally and broken down as follows- (a) Pain and suffering: 150,000 x 63 = 9,450,000. (b) Loss of expectation of life: 200,000 x 63 = 12,600,000. (c) Loss of dependency: 300,000 x 63 = 18,900,000. view
