Stella Nyanzi did not undress herself: she put Makerere University to a nude test.

On Monday a research fellow at Makerere Institute for Social Research removed her clothes protesting the locking of her office.

Many social commentators have refused to offer their opinion. I know those who support her actions have remained silent fearing to be negatively judged by the public. When I looked at the Monday incident i did not see it as a battle between Stella and Mamdani but as battle between those who want Makerere to be corrected and those who want it to remain in trenches.

Those people who are condemning Stella for her nude protest should remember that Makerere had a naked run where both girls and boys ran naked at night. Most people kept silent about it. If its women being nude that those who are against Stella is their issue for fighting her then you should walk around the Campus you will find that a number of girls put on clothes which has no difference with being naked.

A few weeks back a Professor at Makerere was arrested for raping a female student. The case disappeared in the last pages of the daily newspapers. I have seen no one raising the issue. I didn't see even women activists raising up to fight for this innocent female student. I was told of a female retaker who was in my class and I was told that she was retaking the paper for the third time because she had refused to have sex with the lecturer. When the student went to court and got an injunction for remarking. After a remark the student had in fact passed the paper.

I have seen the Makerere Convocation vocal in Stella vs Mamdani fight but have not been seeing their public contribution when the students are fighting the administration on the 100% fees policy.

We should not miss this opportunity when Makerere is undressed to transform it back and get to its correct position. I know her fight has woken up the conflicts at Makerere.

I have seen many people commenting and accusing Stella for showing the world her ugly body. If your conclusion was that the body was ugly then it means Makerere is ugly and needs make up.

I don't support her nude protest but since that happened already let's not lose the opportunity to bring back the glory of our beloved Makerere
