Recently, he said he is slowly improving and doctors are working hard to make sure he returns to the country safe and healthy.
His predicament started after he was sworn in as a member of parliament. By then people thought he was faking the sickness because he didn’t have proper education documents.
After the swearing-in, Hon Ssegirinya was arrested on accusations of murder with fellow member Allan Ssewanyana. The Kawempe North member of parliament became very sick while in prison.
Every time he would appear in court he would show different swollen parts of his body. He asked to see his private doctor but unfortunately, he wasn’t granted that wish. He was treated under the prison system until he was released.
Upon his release, Hon Ssegirinya immediately left the country for treatment. He has been in and out of the hospital since then.
He is currently in AgaKhan hospital in Nairobi Kenya receiving treatment. Photos of him in the hospital keep circulating on social and people wonder if he will be okay.
According to one of his friends, doctors are making sure Ssegirinya is back to his normal health. He also thanked people who have been checking on him.
“Doctors are making every effort to ensure that Hon. Ssegirinya returns to good health. We thank all those who reached out and helped,” he said.

![[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.
