This followed a chat with his daughter Suubi. Suubi in a video posted on Bobi Wine’s Twitter page expressed her shock on how North Korea is run.
She told her father how the citizens there have no liberties and live in a country that is tightly controlled by President Kim Jong Un.
“Taata, do you know that there is no Facebook, Instagram, WiFi Twitter or Tiktok in North Korea. There are no people in the streets and when you’re leaving North Korea, they have to check your phone,” the barely 7-year-old girl told her dad.
Bobi Wine then proceeded to tell her that that’s what happens when a country is ruled by a dictator.
He went ahead to tell her how the situation is no different from the one in Uganda and why Ugandans need to stand up and fight for themselves.
Bobi Wine also told Suubi that there is no Facebook in Uganda. And besides internet was also cut down during the presidential elections.
Suubi then told her father that her older sister Shallom accesses Facebook.
The former Kyadondo east legislator however told his daughter that her sister Shallom is just smart. Apparently, she uses VPN to access the social media platform.
Bobi Wine then added that he was reminded of this chat he had with his daughter during the Geneva summit he’s been attending.
This was after one of the activists from North Korea delivered a speech at the summit.

![[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.
