This was at a Mbarara hospital called Neocare Specialized Hospital and Fertility Centre.
Apparently, this couple comes from Nyaruhanda village in Kitagwenda. They had withstood 32 years of marriage without children hence leading them to face several societal pressures and challenges.
Their faith in God and medical intervention did not let them down as they finally had the last laugh.
Tunanukye, met his wife Kobusingye in 1992 and since then, they had to get children but in vain. He said that they had spent almost all their resources searching for a child.
This couple had visited numerous hospitals and churches across different areas such as Fort Portal, Kampala, and Jinja. However, it was not until they were referred to the Mbarara Neocare Fertility Centre that they finally received good news.
“We have spent a lot of money that I cannot even estimate. We went to many hospitals and churches, but nothing worked,” said Tunanukye.
That was not all the good news for this couple, three months later, they got more surprising news that the couple was expecting quintuplets.
Meanwhile, the quintuplets were born prematurely at seven months and three weeks. They are currently being incubated at Holy Innocents Children’s Hospital in Mbarara.

![[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.
