They also experienced cultural celebrations of the Sebei and the Bamasaaba (also known as the Gishus). The group seems to be enjoying the adventurous tour of Uganda.
In one of the posts shared, Martha Kay appears with former Hot 100 and radio city presenter, Bryan Kella Mckenzie. He is also the host of the show POA Star Search at the Sipi falls. The post had a caption, ‘’We did the damn ting’’.
Martha Kay seems to be having the time of her life on top of enjoying local tourism.
She also shared a snippet of the limousine ride that the group toured the Eastern region in. and according to her latest posts, they show that the group is now at Murchison Falls in Northern Uganda.
It is no surprise that Winston Churchill named Uganda the Pearl of Africa because from the posts by Martha Kay, it has only been beautiful sceneries.
Uganda has been selected as one of the top 10 international tourist destinations on several International Tourism events. Therefore one should consider touring their own country before flying out to go elsewhere.

![[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.
