St Peter’s Naalya, a prominent private secondary school in Kampala, is facing public outrage after allegations surfaced that the school administration forcibly evicted several prospective students and their families from on‑campus housing at 3 a.m. last week. Witnesses claim security guards, acting on orders from senior staff, entered dormitories with flashlights, demanding that families vacate immediately without prior notice. The affected families, many of whom travel from rural districts, were left without accommodation and with no clear explanation. The school’s spokesperson, Michael Kiyingi, issued a brief statement saying the action was “a necessary measure due to unforeseen maintenance issues,” but refused to provide further details. Parents have organized a petition demanding a full investigation and compensation, while the Ministry of Education has announced it will review the school’s compliance with student‑housing regulations.
