News coming in indicate that the speaker was left unhappy with her driver for involving himself in witchcraft and it should be remembered that our very own speaker Rebecca Kadaga, two years ago was vigilantly spotted in Iganga meeting with her witch-doctor which was a bad reflection to Ugandans and it’s less surprising that people surrounding her deal in the same trade.
“Ngobi (name of fired driver) came back to work early morning and the guards to the speaker told him he had been relieved of his duties not even letting him see the boss.” A close source said.
It’s also said that the driver isn’t the first to be sacked in recent times by the speaker, claiming it might be that Kadaga is on a reshuffle among her workers and surprisingly most of them are tribe mates to the speaker.
Her ADC now former, who would carry the speakers bag was fired by the speaker because of rumors that flew around claiming she was working for Amama Mbabazi.
Though she has worked for the speaker for such a long time, it’s said she asked the police to transfer her to Moroto and gave her zero chance to defend herself and now it’s believed she’s working at a Namanve police station.

![[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.
