She revealed that on three occasions, she’s been put to the edge to choose between a relationship and the struggle. And guess what, the struggle has always come first for her.
Two of her boyfriends left because they couldn’t stand seeing her being thrown behind bars like a thief. Furthermore, Nyanjura said that such things don’t happen to her alone.
They happen to many out there and this is because these women are forced to choose between their work and marriage. Many of these usually go for marriage over their careers. And the end result is always losing both career and marriage.
“Thrice I have had to choose between being in a relationship & the struggle. An all scenarios, I have put the struggle first. Two of my boyfriends said they couldn’t stand seeing me thrown around police cells like a thief!
These things don’t happen to me alone, they happen to so many women. Women are often forced to choose between marriage and their jobs. Many choose marriage at the expense of their careers & sometimes they end up losing both the marriage & their career,” said Nyanjura.
Furthermore, she revealed what one of her exes told her. This ex told the former Makerere lord councilor to quit politics and activism.
According to him, Nyanjura is doing all this to please people. Apparently, if she had a family, it would come first and not pleasing others.
Nyanjura however told men to always respect women’s choices and not try to impose their own choices onto these women.
“One of my Exs had this to say to me; “Please leave politics and activism. You’re doing things to please people… If you have family, it will have to come first, not pleasing others.” Dear men, please learn to respect our choices just like we respect yours,” she further said.
A lot of people have been questioning why she’s single despite being in her 30’s. Some have actually linked her to be the side dish of the lord mayor Erias Lukwago.
Despite her rise to stardom in politics, Nyanjura is just like the female artists in the country. These have always expressed their desire to front their careers than intimate relationships.

![[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.
