Personnel - Luwero office



 

Jessica Jemba - Operations Manager
Jessica has been working for the Trust for 8 years, having been trained in social work and secretarial studies. She heads up the team in Luwero, making sure that all those under her, whether they be finance, technical or social, are working together effectively towards one overall greater aim. She enjoys working in the sector as it allows her to work with rural communities as well as earning a living for herself and her children. She says that it was the Busoga Trust Mission Statement which attracted her to the sector. In her spare time she enjoys driving, gardening, indoor games and watching sports.



 

Winifred Kaboyo - Financial Administrator
Winifred has been working for the Trust for 8 years, bringing with her an almost insatiable desire for knowledge. She possesses all manner of certificates and diplomas in office practice, administration, accounting and secretarial studies. She is at the financial helm in Luwero, responsible for ensuring that the cash flows effectively, allowing the technicians to carry out their all important work in the field. Her desire to work in the water sector stems from the fact that it is vital in people’s lives and that she wanted to be instrumental in assisting those communities through the financial administration of the Trust. In her spare time she likes to look for more training facilities and course in order to expand upon her existing experience. When even that is too much like work she prefers to visit friends and join clubs.



 

Jimmy Kiwendo - Storekeeper/Driver
Along with Kagwa, Jimmy forms part of the Old Guard of the Luwero Project, having worked with the Trust for ten years. He really is an asset to the Trust, trained and working as a storekeeper, driver and hand-pump mechanic. He is one of those gentle giants that potters away quietly getting on with his work, ever ready to help. He chose to work in the water sector to earn money and improve the water and sanitation provision to the communities. In his spare time he, like so many of his countrymen, is passionate about football and likes nothing better than watching a good match.



 

Kagwa Wilberforce - Driver/Maintenance Supervisor
Kagwa, along with Jimmy, has worked for the Trust for ten years. Like Jimmy, he is one of those men who is a jack of all trades. He brings with him qualifications not only as a hand-pump mechanic and driver but also as a carpenter. As is characteristic of the dry sense of humour of Kagwa, when asked why he wanted to work in the water and sanitation sector, he replied that it is because Busoga Trust Water & Sanitation pays on time. When not working he likes to spend his time watching football and touring.



 

Lydia Kyaligamba - Community Development Officer
Lydia started working for the Trust in 1997, working as part of the Community Development Team, helping to mobilise and educate the communities prior to project work getting underway. A qualified nurse, she is ideally suited to the job of health education which is one of the motivating factors for her working in the water and sanitation sector. She wants to change home attitudes towards hygiene, teach people the importance of using clean water in order to improve their health and to train the wider community in the principles of health and hygiene. A devout Christian, she likes to spend her free time ‘singing God’s songs and reading the bible’.



 

Eddie Lukwago - Assistant Community Development Officer
Eddie has been working for the Trust since 1998. Definitely suited to his job, Eddie takes mobilisation meetings in his stride, exuding confidence and charisma. He brings a certificate in community development to the position and works in this field both to earn a living but also to serve the community at the same time. In his spare time he tries to get involved in income generating activities, watches movies and reads community development journals.



 

Alice Nalwanga - Administrative Secretary
Alice has been working for the Trust for 8 years and must surely be the highest qualified secretary in the country. She has a degree in office management and secretarial studies, a diploma in business studies, a certificate in computer studies and a diploma in management of information systems. She works in the sector because she feels that, as a secretary, she wanted to learn about other professions and technologies relating to water and sanitation. She was interested in learning how people can gain access to clean water. In her spare time she likes to listen to music, play computer games and read novels.


Robert Kalenzi - Technical Supervisor
Robert is the new boy of the Luwero Project, having only started in August 2005. He brings with him a BTech in Construction Engineering, a diploma in water engineering and an international certificate in the planning and management of water and sanitation technologies, with particular focus upon low income communities. He wanted to work in the sector in order to alleviate poverty amongst the rural communities, improve on overall water coverage, earn a living, promote high standards of sanitation in the rural areas and also because the work of the water sector had been and interest of his since childhood. In his spare time he likes to get involved in income generating activities, read books on technology development and read newspapers in order to become better informed on national and global affairs.



Lubanga James - Logistician/Senior Maintenance Officer
James is following in his father’s footsteps, Rev William Kiwanauk, in becoming a member of staff with Busoga Trust Luwero. With a Diploma in Arts James is not only a talented artist but is also a gifted musician who enjoys strumming on his guitar until the early hours. When not fulfilling his duties as Assistant Maintenance Officer James is more often than not charged with the task of patiently transporting the Busoga Trust’s Liaison Officer here, there and everywhere on his trusty Suzuki.



Kigongo Irene - Community Development Officer
One of Busoga Trust’s newest recruits Irene joined the Luwero staff after successfully completing a BA in Social Sciences at Makerere University. Initially employed as a volunteer Irene’s dedication and hard work soon paid off when she became a fully fledged member of staff in October and joined the Busoga Trust/Plan Uganda sensitisation team. When not helping to improve hygiene and sanitation in Luwero Irene enjoys making friends and watching movies, though nothing too scary!



Kabugo John Sekitoleko - Senior Driver/Mechanic
John is currently enjoying his second term with Busoga Trust as the Senior Driver in Luwero. After an initial stint with Busoga Trust John ventured in search of pastures new and found them with TNT Deliveries in Kampala. However, the allure of helping to provide clean water for Luwero’s poor proved too much and John came back on board in late 2006, a welcome return indeed.




 

Richard Sekilanda - Community Development Officer
A local lad Richard joined Busoga Trust at the end of 2006. Employed with the task of sensitising communities on proper hygiene and sanitation Richard has been a key implementer of the Busoga Trust/Plan Uganda sensitisation project. Previously working with the Catholic based development organisation CARITAS Richard joined Busoga Trust so to improve on his working knowledge of water and sanitation.
