Sejusa said that they should stop the opulent and decadent behavior. This is because they are public servants. He called out over posting of photos in cozy hotels in areas such as Dubai, New York etc. According to him, this is wrong especially when one has beggars in their constituency. Even if the money was earned legitimately, it’s just not the right thing to do.
“Stop public display of opulent lifestyle & other decadent behavior IF YOU ARE A #publicservant. Posting photos of u enjoying life in the most expensive hotels in New York, Dubai…,with beggars in yr constituency? Even when you earned your money Legitimately, and some have; IT’S WRONG!.”
This is a trend that can’t be separated with both politicians from the government and opposition. Although when it comes to luxurious lifestyle display, the opposition edges out government officials. Yet probably it should be the other way around.
This is something that has now been used against the opposition especially Bobi Wine’s NUP.
Some critics have taken to different platforms to question why these are always living in luxury.
Weddings and flying abroad has become a common phenomenon for the NUP. This is something the critics have used to discredit Bobi Wine’s ‘struggle.’
The government officals are also not excusable of this. For instance, the speaker of Parliament Hon Anita Among and her husband Hon Eng Moses Magogo had the country on toes after their birthday gifts in form of their Range Rovers serenading Parliament.
Minster Haruna Kasolo was also at it yesterday during his wedding as he gifted his bride a monstrous Range Rover.

![[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.
