The Kyadondo East MP and musician Robert Kyagulanyi commonly known as Bobi Wine, has put aside his grudges with the Uganda Police and appreciated the good work they did in their investigations towards capturing the man who was caught on CCTV camera on 30th June while strangling a boda boda cyclist in Mengo.
The bodaboda cyclist identified as Derrick Mulindwa who was hit several times on the head with a metal bar reportedly survived death. The ‘Kyarenga‘ singer has this time around decided to join and honored police for doing such great work. Therefore, while on social media, he posted a long statement about the issue.
“I want to take this opportunity to appreciate the police officers who arrested this man- John Bosco Mugisha, who is being charged with the murder of the late Derrick Mulindwa, a boda boda cyclist, in the most gruesome manner. He has allegedly confessed to having committed the heinous crime!
John Bosco and his partner in crime were caught on camera strangling the deceased, before hitting his head several times with a metal bar. Seeing this man, I can’t help but wonder how cold someone could be to end another’s life in that way. Did they think about his family? Did they ask if he had children and what would happen to them?
May Derrick’s soul continue to rest in eternal peace.”

![[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.
