“I will meet the young Rebecca Kadaga in the first week of June, I will get in touch with the Headteacher at JIPRA,” Kadaga tweeted.
The former speaker’s decision came after a plea by the schoolgirl through the Daily Monitor in which she made a wish to meet the Kamuli Woman MP to clear her confusion with the name.
The 17-year-old Rebecca Kadaga says she looks up to the Minister and wants to study law to be like her.
She however claimed that despite being famous for sharing a name with the Minister, she has yearned to meet her in vain.
“The problem is that it's very difficult to meet her. I really want to meet her in person because I've never,” Kadaga said.
