According to Lutaaya, he was placed under gunpoint and there isn’t much he could have done about it.
It should be recalled that the internet was cut off countrywide during the elections last year. Lutaaya however somehow managed to tweet part of the elections as they were coming in.
Despite the absence of the internet, he was able to somehow access it and some Ugandans also saw these results on his paage.
These had NUP leader Hon Robert Kyagulanyi Ssentamu in the lead but didn’t comprise the entire general total election results.
However, Ugandans who support Bobi Wine and the opposition contend that this was just an overview of the entire results. It meant that Bobi Wine would have won had the elections not been tampered with.
For long, NBS journalists have been faulted for having had a hand in spreading wrong election results. Lutaaya who recently quit NBS for personal ventures this time round couldn’t handle the insults anymore.
His opinion on everything has always been reduced to that saga and he decided to confess once and for all. Lutaaya questioned his critics about how they sensibly think that a mature man like him could delete his tweets willingly.
He added that there are a lot of people who do things under gunpoint. He feared for his life, thus deleting these results. Lutaaya then warned all his critics to wait for their fate if they are ever thrown into such a scenario.
“Naye mwana namwe bi comment byamwe bintama. Kati mwe mulowooza omusajja Omukulu nyinza okubeera awo nensangula tweet zange kyeyagalire? Bangi munange abakola ebintu ku mudumo. Kale nze omunafu natya, naye katulinde naawe lwebalikunyiga tunaalaba oba naawe ezizo tolizisangula.”

![[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.
