The MP while appearing on Sanyuka TV’s Uncut show made the remarks as she sympathized with presenter Kaiyz over his recent arrest by singer OS Suuna. Nambooze said that what OS Suuna had done to imprison Kayz was so bad.
She said that defamation is a civil case which Kayz should have been taken to civil court and not Kitalya. Nambooze then added that Suuna could have had an external force behind him.
She also expressed her disappointment in UCC for pushing gossip shows past prime airing time.
“I’m not very happy with what OS did to you Kayz. Defamation which he sued you for is a civil case but the way he hastened taking you to jail could have had an external force behind him.”
“Besides I’m appalled by UCC’s decision to push gossip shows from their normal airing time. When I was studying law in Sweden, we were told that kids should never be sent away from watching movies that contain sexual scenes, instead watch them together and offer parental guidance because this is what they will do when they grow up.
Many parents stop their children from watching such movies but allow them to watch movies with violence which they at times adopt,” the MP said.
Use of explicit language and content was one of the reasons UCC shifted these shows to 10pm-5am. Nambooze also revealed that music is one of the easiest ways to speak to the youth.
She further discussed singer Jose Chameleone’s recent political meanderings. It should be noted that Nambooze was one of the people who welcomed Chameleone into DP.
The singer followed her when she moved to NUP but later left the party back to NRM.

![[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.
