During the height of Makerere guild president campaigns, there is a tweet that made rounds on Twitter in Nyanjura’s name.
“Gallant Makerereans, we either vote for Obeid Yahaya Kamulegeya or the NRM candidate but not these NUP hooligans.”
However, Nyanjura denied posting any tweet of the sort. She in fact said she is disappointed with the way NUP couldn’t tell that the tweet was fake.
“I for a minute stopped clarifying and felt very insulted. I felt even frustrated in knowing that a whole section of some folks lack the basic mental tools of analysis and can’t even see what seems so obvious. There is no tweet that doesn’t indicate time, if you post, the tweet will clearly indicate the time it has been posted,” she wrote.
She says she can never support NRM as the tweet suggests. NRM has never been a choice to her even if it remained as the only option.
“I have never supported Museveni or NRM. I am the type that would not vote if NRM is the only choice available. Yet these halfwits in their imaginations think they can stoop me low. What an insult.”
Doreen said her late reply was giving room for those who want to insult her to do it to their satisfaction. She advised NUP to focus their energy on the junta.
“I have deliberately decided to respond now because I didn’t want to interrupt your abusing and insulting excitement. Now that you seem done with insulting me for a fake Twitter post that you created and circulated widely, I kindly request you focus your energies on the junta.”

![[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.
