Bobi Wine ran to his social media with photo evidence of this act from his agents who apparently reached there by the hour of 6:00am.
“Our agents arrived at this polling station at 6:30am (before 7:00am when voting is meant to start). They got this man red-handed, stuffing in these ballot papers at Namavundu Church polling station. We are seeing in Kayunga what happened in January & why M7 switched off internet.”
Due to this, NUP Spokesperson says some of their agents have been arrested already. According to him, all this is being done so that NRM can get away with this plan of ballot stuffing.
“We’ve received reports of our agents being arrested when they showed up at polling stations in Kayunga. They are arresting & taking them away so they can execute their diabolical plans of ballot stuffing & other rigging. All this is in vain, nothing can stop an idea whose time has come!”
Some supporters of NUP have gone ahead to ask themselves why it looks like winning LCV race in Kayunga is a big deal to NRM. This apparently, is very suspicious.
“Buuuh what’s in Kayunga that NRM is dying for am wondering if this happens for LC5 by-elections then what will happen for by-elections for MPs…,” a one Mugabe Davis wrote.

![[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.
