Andrew Mwenda To Challenge The Anti-homesexuality Bill If President Museveni Signs It

Legendary media personality and Muhoozi project spokesperson, Andrew Mwenda, has apparently come out to reveal that he will challenge the Anti-homosexuality bill once the president of Uganda H.E Yoweri Kaguta Museveni signs it.

In many cultures across the world, homosexuality is a sin and is considered a curse. Different countries have refused to embrace it saying it goes against their traditional values.

Uganda not being different from other those countries, has refused to embrace homosexuality giving the same reasons.

For Uganda, the rate at which homosexuality is increasing is alarming. It is more in the young, especially those school-going students. This is because they are usually lured and recruited into the act with the promise of money.

Members of Parliament took to the floor of the house to pass the anti-homosexuality bill. Most of them supported it and it was passed but President Museveni hasn’t signed it into law yet.

According to Andrew Mwenda, if president Museveni dares signs the bill, he will go to court to challenge it. He said every Ugandan needs to be protected with all the rights.

He doesn’t understand how polygamous marriages have rights but gays can’t have the same.

According to Mwenda, polygamy is not allowed religiously. However, African men as it is in the culture are okay to marry as many wives as they want.

That’s why even those who decide to be gay should be protected because they are Africans.

“If Museveni signs this Anti- Homosexuality law, I promise you, I Andrew Mwenda I will go to the constitutional court to challenge it,” – he said.

[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.
