The students in their press statement read by Ambrose Tumwine, a student in-charge of legal matters of the association asserted when ethnic tribes call for secession, it weakens the kingdom as an institution as well as extinction of the great glory of the kingdom preserved for many generations.
The students called for dialogue in pursuit of a common ground between the Kingdom leadership and the agitators of the Bugungu secession.
