As a young Pan Africanist, Yoweri Kaguta Museveni was only interested in joining the University of Dar es Salaam with an aim of participating in politics and liberation, to his disappointment, he found that many students were only focusing on careerism. 
Determined to make a meaningful contribution, Museveni and other patriotic students formed a Pan Africanist students organisation called University Students African Revolutionary Front (USARF)which connected different students’ different countries across Africa.
