Intelligent, sensitive, empathy, goes for honesty and kindness. What many forget or neglect she applies what she beliefs in her daily life. She is a lovely world woman. Thank you Rosette. With love, Diane - The Hague, 16Jan2011; 16 January 2011 at 00:40
Unknown said...: She has that unique sense of human life and care for others. She is out to address what others will not dare. Her understanding and wisdom blended with quick action makes Rosette an amazing friend, wife of John, parent, donor and woman scholar From Joy and Silvanus; 28 March 2011 at 10:12
Dennis Jjuuko said...: What a wonderful woman Miss Rosette is, we would like to meet such women to guide us in our future careers but we do not know how to contact them. Miss Muzigo, I want to get to the Kroc Institute at Notre Dame but I do not know how to go about it, I humbly need your guidance.

Dennis Jjuuko said...: I'm overwhelmingly impressed by you Miss Muzigo. I have always been in need of meeting people like you but I fail due to lack of their contacts. I presented a paper on the Somali conflict at the Human Development Conference at the University of Notre Dame in February this year and I got interest of applying in the Kroc for an MA in Peace Studies. I need you to give me some guidance on how to go about it because the Kroc Institute is really good. I request for your advice since you were also there sometime and I've read you gave a lecture in the January of this year, so please I request for your advice.; 6 July 2011 at 15:12
