“Adultery is no longer a criminal offense in our country. Therefore, criminalizing it is an act of unprofessionalism and abuse of authority, which the force cannot tolerate. We strongly condemn the criminalization of civil matters in police.”
Enanga warned married persons to respect the sanctity of marriage whether in estranged, complex or sensitive relationships. He advised them to use lawful means, instead of smearing their lovers’ reputation.
He noted that whereas adultery is not a crime, they can, however, use it as a ground for civil processes like divorce, separation, custody of children and sharing of property.
Enanga said that the role of police in civil conflicts is to protect life and property.
“However, there are other circumstances, were victimized married person, can report their matters to police. These include complaints of elopement, where one elopes with a married person and stays with them. Trafficking in persons, where a person uses their power or positions of superiority and takes advantage of the victim’s vulnerability or disability. And under domestic violence, where the victim is tortured physically or emotionally by the sexual behavior of a married partner,” Enanga said.
He, therefore, warned police not to handle adultery cases in any way. This is especially if there is no criminal activity in it.

![[dropcap]A[/dropcap] section of women in Bugongo parish and Nawangaiza parish in Nawandala Sub County, Iganga District have decried the near-impossible terms set for them to access GROW funds. They have now petitioned their woman member of parliament for Iganga Hon. Kauma Sauda Alibaawo to ask the government for revised terms and conditions. This is to enable them to benefit from the program. The disgruntled women accuse the implementers of the program of charging the money. They are also asking for their land titles and land agreements. They said that such properties are governed by their husbands. These, therefore want the government through their woman MP to intervene and revise the requirements for one to benefit. The women were on Wednesday at Namabwere primary school in Nawandala Sub County. They had gathered in their respective groups to receive over 300 chickens from Hon Alibaawo in her campaign to improve the livelihood of women in Iganga district. Each group was given 50 chicken as start-up capital in their journey to prosperity. Read what some leaders said; Ms Naigambi Lydia from Nawandala Trading Centre says, “They solicited money from us through opening bank accounts and depositing Shs80,000. They also asked for land titles and land agreements from us yet we don’t have such things. I was informed that I needed to have a business with a capital of Shs4m yet my capital was very small.” The chairperson Kisoboka Saving Group in Nawandala Ms. Nakagolo Faith said they were not able to join the program. This is given the many conditions attached. She also asked their woman MP to raise their concerns to the relevant offices. The MP condemned the mode of implementation of the program. She cited that it has turned to benefit the well-off class of women other than the intended group. She further asked the government to intervene saying the current strings attached to the programme are very tight to accommodate a common woman. GROW project is a Government of Uganda initiative that arose out of the need to respond to the needs of women entrepreneurs. This is especially those who want to grow their businesses, sustain their self-employment and create more jobs.
