For many years now, the female residents of Kikoni\u2019s most famous hostel, Olympia have been heard throwing shade on the long term serving and shrewd custodian, as well as accusing him of sexual harassment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
After a revealing story run by Campus Bee yesterday that shared revelations by students at Kikoni Based Olympia Hostel over their custodian that is only known as Reuben, the females in the hostel have opened up a petition at change.org to have the individual dismissed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The petition was started by a one Patricia Mworozi and it is petitioning the owner of the hostel, Dr. Joseph Byamugisha to have the individual dismissed over sexual harassment. The girls at the hostel have horrifying tales involving the custodian and they say he can do just anything to take advantage of the girls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cReuben, the custodian of Olympia Hostel is a known serial sexual harasser of the female residents and guests of Olympia Hostel and we, the residents of this hostel, are demanding for his immediate dismissal,\u201d Mworozi states in the petition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cWe are entitled to the right to protection from degrading treatment and his continued presence and position is a risk to the safety and dignity of all women. Share this petition to help us ensure that he may be held accountable for his actions,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
She was joined by several other residents of the hostel to justify the claims and call for the immediate dismissal of the Custodian. \u201cReuben has made girls feel unsafe contrary to his duty as custodian. It makes people uncomfortable to even present issues to him because we don\u2019t feel safe,\u201d Alexandra Kamatsiko, a third year law student said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cSexual harassment is just sickening\u201d another Makerere University student Diane Kamikazi pointed out as she rallied her colleagues to join in and sign the petition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
