In Kampala, the rain started as early as 5: 00 am and went on for several hours. It was a nightmare for candidates in the day section with many arriving awfully wet and shivering from coldness. Even after arriving at school, the candidates remained in the cold as they were seen on verandahs as they could not be allowed to access the classes before being checked.

In
Kampala, the rain started as early as 5: 00 am and went on for several hours. It
was a nightmare for candidates in the day section with many arriving awfully wet
and shivering from coldness. Even after arriving at school, the candidates remained in the
cold as they were seen on verandahs as they could not be allowed to access the classes
before being checked.
Due to the rain,
many candidates arrived past 9:00 am, which was the official starting time of
the examination time. Lucky enough, the examinations had not started as the
distribution process was also disrupted by the rains.
