He was commenting on the issues of mailo land in Buganda saying that if the President presses any further, he might not like the outcome.
Nadduli further said that Museveni’s goal is not to settle the land wrangles. He instead wants to weaken Buganda kingdom which was vital in his rise to power.
The former bush war hero further said that he was disappointed with Mr Museveni who has constantly violated the treaties he signed with the Kabaka.
These agreements were signed when the Kabaka was still a prince. They expected that Museveni would hand over all confiscated properties of Mengo soon after capturing of power.
“I was present when Museveni was agreeing with the Kabaka to hand over all Buganda’s properties to the kingdom if we help him capture power from Obote. Something we did but he has since refused to honor and keep his word.” Nadduli said.
Nadduli went ahead to compliment the mailo land system saying it’s one of the best. He also added Museveni and his people are trying to turn it’s advantages into disadvantages. This is because his people are the ones involved in land disputes.
He went ahead to caution President Museveni that he’s digging his own path to downfall if he decides to wage war on Buganda.
Nadduli cites some leaders who have crumbled after attacking Buganda. He reminded Museveni not to bite the hand that once fed him.
Mr Museveni is a staunch critic of the mailo land system especially in Buganda saying it hampers development.
Earlier this week, the two figures met at State House Nakaseero although they didn’t divulge thedetails of the meeting.

![[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.
