Barely 19 months after fire caught Makerere University’s main building also known as the Ivory Tower, the iconic building has been demolished.

The building that has stood for 81 years (constructed betwern 1930 and 1941), the Ivory Tower has been considered the University’s symbol of distinction.

In September 2022, unknown fire outbreaks alleged to be caused by electric circuits caught the building and alot of documents and equipments were destroyed.

The fire swept through different major offices including that of the Vice Chancellor prof Barnabas Nawangwe.

Few weeks ago, Makerere University management handed over the site to Excel Construction company. They started the job on March 14th after beating eight different companies for the job.

According to Prof Banabas Nawangwe, Excel Construction Company which he describes as being ‘affordable’ is expected to complete the construction works by August 2022 when the university will be celebrating 100th anniversary

“The contractor should burn the midnight oil to ensure that the Main Building is standing when the university holds its centennial celebrations in August,” he said

Earlier,the parliament of Uganda approved 20b Ushs supplementary budget for the construction works.” Nawangwe said.
