National Unity Platform President, Robert Kyagulanyi alias Bobi Wine has said Museveni has used Sipapa and dumped him. He said this while giving remarks about Sipapa’s arrest.
Charles Olim aka Sipapa, was arrested two weeks ago. Up until now he has never been presented to court. He is currently at Special Investigations Division(SID) Kireka.
According to Bobi Wine, Museveni is now ready to spit all those that he used.
“No wonder, many of them are now in the media crying foul, and begging for mercy from the same population they harassed and humiliated. Sipapa is feeding on the same cup of lawlessness that he promoted and represented. On several occasions, he and his ilk defended or masterminded the illegal detention of our comrades for months or years without being produced in court,” he said.
Bobi Wine goes ahead to explain how Sipapa has been the indemnity of Museveni’s regime.
“He moved around with guns terrorizing innocent citizens with reckless abandon. Like many others of his kind, the regime used him and his gang to harass and intimidate our supporters before, during and after the election. He [Sipapa] dispersed our peaceful meetings, tore our posters and visited all manner of violence on our people. On three occasions, they came to Kamwokya and wreaked havoc at our offices and the surrounding areas. He and his gang twice fired bullets at our gate.”
However, even with all this Bobi Wine has asked the police to present Sipapa to the courts of law.

![[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.
