Customers were unable to access the services and took to different avenues to complain. Most of these had fears that maybe the platform had somehow dubiously stolen their monies.
“@chippercashapp, I tried to login to my chipper cash account and instead of logging me in it’s showing me as a new unregistered account. What is wrong???? I can’t log into my account and I can’t access my,” one customers of the service said.
“Please why did my chipper cash log me out. I tried to make a transfer there it’s telling me to log in. I tried and it start acting like I’m a new user please sort this out please,” another said.
Others started wondering how its ambassadors such as Spice Diana and Faridah Nakazibwe were going to face people if their monies got stolen.
“I really don’t know how Faridah Nakazibwe and Spice Diana are going to explain to us if chipper cash really stole our money.”
However, this seemed a general problem in all the countries the service is in. Chipper cash consequently came out to provide an update on the issue.
They revealed that they were facing a technical malfunction and requested their customers to be patient with them.
“The Chipper app is currently unavailable as we’re experiencing an unscheduled downtime on some of our products. We kindly request your patience and sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused.”
A few hours after this communication, the service returned providing a huge sigh of relief to the customers.
“The Chipper app is back up and running. Thank you for your support and patience.”
This all comes at a time after a popular online sports gaming service known as BLQ Football stole 50 billion shillings from Ugandans.

![[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.
