August 24th, 2025
Dear All,
The South Sudan Education Centre Alumni Association is deeply sadden to learn the untimely death of Tr. Jakisa Emmanuel, the longest serving Physics & Mathematics Teacher at South Sudan Education Centre Secondary School –Aweil, which occurred on August 3rd, 2025 in Kampala, Uganda due to short illness.
Teacher Emmanuel was one of those few noble people who sacrificed their life to change the lives of many young people in South Sudan through delivery of quality education.
Because of the love he has for South Sudan and the Aweil in particular, he left his home country Uganda to come and help teach and inspire those whose quest for knowledge & mentorship was limited by resources.
Late. Tr. Jakisa Emmanuel joined South Sudan Education Centre Secondary School in February 2018 as Physics, Basic & Additional Mathematics Teacher and continued serving till November 2024 when he left for his family back in Uganda. Since then, the school management has been in contact with him and was doing well not until he succumbed to an illness on a short notice on the 3rd of this month.
Though he has unfortunately left the world, his exceptional teaching & inspiration as well as unconditional love for everyone will remains to cherished by all who helped changed their lives in one way or the other. We will dearly missed him 😭
