Apparently, some people have also made it a habit to fabricate letters showing the same to other media houses. Recently, there has been a letter allegedly accusing NTV and the Head of European Union Delegation in Uganda.
However, the only letter that NUP has taken into account was the one sent to NBS. Other letters according to their spokesperson, Joel Senyonyi should be treated with contempt.
“After a protest letter giving feedback to one of the media houses, regime spin masters are now in overdrive as they create fake letters to several entities. Let’s treat these with the contempt they deserve,” Joel wrote.

Much as the NUP camp has come out to clarify this issue, very many people had a number of queries. How did the letter to NBS end up on social media? Wasn’t there a better way of handling such issues outside the public knowledge?
We just can’t tell, probably it was leaked or intentionally put out there for the public to know.
Regardless of what may have happened, the letter issue has had an impact on both NUP and Media especially NBS. Some people sided with NUP and others chose NBS which has caused a ruckus on social media.
Clearly, politics has drawn a lot of lines between the public, and it’s not about to get done, at least until the swearing ceremony.

![[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.
