In an interview due to air on Sunday, Obama said President-elect Joe Biden had ‘’clearly won’’ this year’s race for the White House. President Trump and his team are yet to provide any evidence to support their claims.
The media called the result last week however much some states are still counting. Arizona and its 11 electoral votes are 99% finished with Biden in the lead.
Mr. Trump’s predecessor, Barack Obama said the allegations were motivated by the fact that his successor hates losing.
‘’I’m more troubled by the fact that other Republican officials, who clearly know better, are going along with this. It is one more step in delegitimizing not just the incoming Biden Administration, but democracy general. And that’s a dangerous path,’’ Obama said.
Mr. Obama was speaking ahead of the release of his new memoir, A Promised Land. This memoire charts his rise to the US Senate and first term as president. It is the first of two books that will cover his time in the White House and it will be released on 17 November.
Obama said in his memoir that Trump came into power by stoking fears about a Black man leading the country according to expert quotes.
Obama reportedly wrote that Trump promised an elixir for the racial anxiety of millions of Americans spooked by a black president.

![[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.
