This is due to the recent rivalry between the two he has termed as the “war of letters.”
The major issue originates from a couple of letters the latter sent to the president through his private principle secretary. Apparently, the letters were reporting the IGG for stalking trouble and discord.
The president replied Byenkya saying he had read the letters alleging that Kamya is the cause of discord. However, he revealed he needs time to consult with his legal team on who has a valid complaint.
He also asked that the two appear in front of him at the same time with an intention of getting the allegations first hand.
President Museveni also said that the two should avoid fighting since they are practically ‘sisters.’ In addition to that, he reiterated his message of cohesion amongst the appointees in his current government structures.
Issues the two started when Byenkya accused Kamya of interfering with Uganda Land Commission works.
The two would later clash bitterly while appearing before the Physical Infrastructure Committee of Parliament in 2020.
A lot of things were exchanged between the two with Kamya accusing Byenkya of being a “difficult” person to work with.
The lands commission chair in return accused Kamya of deliberately declining to work with her only during the Nakawa- Naguru Land compensation matter.

![[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.
