According to her, opposition should just find things that they can jointly do together because the uniting is not possible.
“All opposition parties can’t be united. It is just like Christians; they are only united in insulting Satan.
It is a mistake to continue repeating the mistakes. Let us give ourselves time to look into the things we can jointly do together,” Nambooze.
She says the opposition can’t unite because it’s about who takes the credit rather than getting together.
“Betty Nambooze says the problem in the opposition is about who takes the credit. That is why they can’t unite. We should ask ourselves, where do we want to go as a nation? NUP and FDC are the same; they are all fighting for the same cause. The only problem is that they have a different Mugabe (leader).”
Lord Mayor Erias Lukwago, didn’t differ so much from this. He says much as they seem disunited as the opposition, they have the struggle that brings them together.
“Let us separate politics from the struggle. I don’t have anything against Nabilah for contesting against me. There is a struggle that unites us.”
With the way this ngs are moving, the unity of the opposition is a myth. It is something close to impossible after all the trials that have been made.
In 2016, opposition attempted to have one candidate for presidency but this was frustrated by disunity. Perhaps the agendas of these parties are too great to come together.

![[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.
