The dreadlocked singer while appearing on NBS’s Uncut show said the President was yet to reward them for their efforts during the presidential campaigns.
A number of people especially bloggers and entertainers have come out to cry to President Museveni to remember them for the works done in the campaigns.
These include motor mouthed Jennifer Full Figure, Isma Olaxes, Ashburg Kato among others.
They say that they put in a lot if efforts to see the President back in power. However, they haven’t tasted the rewards of their sweat.
Now Butcherman went ahead to say that he lost a number of businesses and other things due to his political work.
“To be honest with you, most of us have not yet been rewarded. Some of us put in our own resources, we even lost businesses. We went to the extreme to see the President back in power. We therefore request him to remember and consider rewarding our services.” Butcherman said.
He also went ahead to talk about the proposed government stimulus COVID 19 package for the vulnerable groups.
Butcherman said that the criteria they want to use in distributing the money in ghettos is not proper.
This is because the LC authorities they want to use do not know some of the ghetto dwellers very well.
“I think the criteria to be used should be changed. Some of these chairmen are not well conversant with the ghetto youths. I think the money should be given to the ghetto government. And as their president, I know them very well, I can therefore distribute it properly.” Butcherman added.
He went ahead to say that he had contacted the new minister of Kampala Kabuye Kyofatogabye and other relevant authorities about this matter.
He went ahead to plead to the Prime Minister Rt Hon Robinah Nabbanja to also come into this issue and help in solving it.
The former Fire base vice president added that he had a list of all the ghetto commanders. This would help in the distribution of the money.

![[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.
