Nambooze who told media from where she is in India that the painful back is now relieved and she can now turn in bed normally and comfortably.
I feel better than before, the operation they carried out on me was indeed successful as am now able to turn comfortably, however, I still need more time to recover ‘’Nambooze said.
She still needs someone to support her to be able to walk and that’s why she uses a wheel-chair enclosed within bounds.
Last week on Thursday, Betty Nambooze under-went a five hour Laparoscopic Lumber Spine surgery.
The surgery carried-out by accessing the backbone via a small hole pushed in the stomach and pipe is stretched through it with a support of a visual image recorder.
The surgeons at the Spine Care Centre recommended the above surgery in order to avoid damaging her nerves, because if they had put additional cut in the main scar, it would be too risky.
The police arrested Betty Nambooze last month following the comments she reportedly made regarding late Abiriga Ibrahim. While in a police cell, her health condition worsened and she was rushed to Kiruddu hospital before being forwarded to India for further treatment.

![[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.
