KIU, Main Campus- After being inactivitive for some time due
to the effect caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the KIU Mass communication
association is making a great return. A series of meetings by passionate Mass
communication students has now formed an inaugural committee that will lead the
revamping of the once most active students association at KIU.
A meeting held on Tuesday 2nd March 2021 resolved that the
association be reinstated. The same meeting agreed to form a 16 member
committee whose main duty will be to lead the association back to its lost
glory. The committee will be led by Titus Momekam as acting president, Emmanuel
Kabanda and Ketra Kisitu as speaker and secretary reactively.
After being confirmed president, Titus Momekam said that they
will start with a weekly news bulletin for KIU TV and a weekly newsletter.
câ¬Å?We shall have a weekly newsletter and a bulletin for KIU TV
as our initial starting point," Titus said.
He also stressed that he will do all it takes to avoid the mistakes done by previous regimes so that it becomes the most successful association in the University.
"We shall not repeat the mistakes of past regimes.
I hope we can turn things around and make Mass communication sound once
more," He added.

association that unites all students pursuing Mass communication from
certificate to degree level. It is headed by the department of journalism and
media studies.
