Even male ministers and MPs have started approaching me to discuss the challenges they face in their homes. - Specioza Kazibwe

When I was Vice President, I told the president that this was impossible. So, we asked some headteachers and teachers from these 'Four schools' to take the same exams, and they failed. How could they have been teaching students who scored Four if they themselves couldn't pass?

People often believed my life was perfect—I had a husband, a successful career, financial stability, and my children were excelling in school and university.

I chose to break my silence and speak out about the reality of what I was going through.
