The Home of Love and Academia

A Matriculation Poem to Welcome Freshers at the University of Makeni

Welcome to an academic home of excellence, 
Where hunters hunt love in excess
And fishers fish knowledge and accumulate providence.
An academic place above;
Where we build a civilization of love with no curve.

UniMak has nurtured her seed in civilized love and education of quality.
Her breed is scattered all over, serving society
While her students are victimized by Government gratuity. 
Are we not children of Mama Salone?
That we should be left to wander in this journey alone! 
 
We build a civilization of love
As we believe in the Holy Cross as a dove.
We are but benefiting under the nomenclature of Fatima’s love.
A kind and lovely mother,
She edifies us on how to build a civilization of love without borders.

We are the Genesis of love in this countryside,
And the orthodox of scholastic civilization as our pride.
We are on an academic ride;
A journey to love all and to transform society 
Oh, mother! Help us now, as we build a civilization of love in purity.
