NUP supporters from abroad have organized a protest calling for the closure of funds to Uganda. According to them, the major purpose of these funds is to finance dictatorship.
The NUP social media team posted about this on their different social media platforms.
“Our comrades in the diaspora have organised peaceful protests calling out financial aid donors to stop funding the dictatorship through loans. Funds recieved to improve the social welfare of the citizens are instead used to oppress them, the rest lost thru corruption & embezzlement.”
Apparently, Bobi Wine is out of the country, and it must be true after reading this. According to the people close to him, he went out to get funds for his party since it’s a trying season.
Now that most people are not working, this must have forced him to look for other means for the party to stand. However, doesn’t this confirm Museveni’s claims that it’s people from abroad funding NUP?
Meanwhile, whether this is going to work or not, we are not sure. It may be really hard to fight something that is within from out.
Though, there is no denying that, some people have done this before. However, this calls for a lot of organization which doesn’t seem the case in NUP right now.
According to their post, this demonstration will take place at the International Monetary Fund Headquarters. Obviously, NUP Supporters will send the message home, since this is where most loans are processed for countries in need.

![[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.
