Earlier last month, the UPDF admitted Kibalama to Bombo Military Hospital in a coma after he had tested positive for Covid-19.
However, speaking on Sunday during a review on his status, Kibalama said he has no idea how he got to the hospital. This is because he probably fell unconscious after difficulty in breathing. He, however, applauded the army for coming to his help.
‘’I was taken to Bombo Military Hospital in a coma about three weeks ago but the soldiers made sure I returned to normalcy in just two to three days. I was in admission for two weeks where I experienced the true professionalism of the UPDF,’’ Kibalama said on Sunday.
He said he resurrected within a day or two but woke up with doctors and machines surrounding him like he had been admitted. He further said that ICU treatment is not like any other treatment.
The controversial politician however noted that apart from the general body weakness, he is progressing quite well. He further said that he expects to be back on his feet in a few weeks.

![[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.
