He says Bobi Wine graduated fraudulently since he was not eligible for admission to the university.
Male alleged that Kyagulanyi who was then 20 years old registered as a student of MDD on a mature age entry scheme. This is contrary to Makerere University’s admissions policies.
However, they stated that for one to get admission for the mature age entry at the time, the candidate had to at least be 25 years old. Or one who had completed formal education at least five years before the year of admission to the university.
However, when DPP took over the prosecution of the case, he asked court to allow him withdraw the case. The trial magistrate Augustine Alule ruled that they give the DPP powers to prosecute criminal matters. The same also has a right to discontinue charges.
“The role of the court is only to consent in the event that the DPP wants to take over the private prosecution. Or discontinue proceedings from another person or authority,” Alule said
Meanwhile, Male Mabirizi said he is going to open a new case of the same.
“All the LDC court proceedings, rulings, and purported discharge by the DPP of Robert Kyagulanyi over academic fraud are at Makerere University are null and void for want of jurisdiction. We will file at Nabweru because Makerere is in Kawempe division and not Central division.”

![[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.
