He says the laxity of government in dealing with this issues speaks volumes. He said security would be tight if it were Bobi Wine in Masaka even when he means no harm.
Senyonyi says the fact that the murderers even give notice before showing up in a particular place alarming. Matter of fact is when they show up, what is security up to.
Senyonyi even joked and said perhaps Bobi Wine should just go and stay in Masaka. Beyond all doubt, he is sure security will be tight in Masaka. However how true is this?
So far there are over 26 people whose lives have been taken by the massacre in Masaka.
The government hasn’t brought out anything substantial to this moment. The people their are simply living in fear and hanging on a thread because they don’t know what is even going on.
The manner in which these thugs are murdering people is even very disturbing. Most of them are just stabbed to death.
In a news report by NTV about this story, people are evidently frightened. By the hour of 6:00pm, you can hardly see anyone moving because people are already in their houses.
Meanwhile, the president said recently that they got some suspects. They have never been brought out in public an the killings are still going on.
The question many people are asking is, what is the plan of government because this is getting out of hand.

![[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.
