According to the journalist, the new structure which is Pastor Samuel Kakande’s new church is better than Kiruddu Hospital.
This referral Hospital which is located in Buziga along Salaama road is one of Uganda’s most sophisticated health facilities. According to official sources, “It cost an estimated US$10.3 million and about $350,000 in supervisory fees to build.”
According to Mukasa, Kiruddu is no match for Kakande’s new Synagogue Church of All Nations. He said that the Church is far better looking and it seems the country is growing spiritually.
“Pastor Kakande’s newly constructed church at Mulago ku bbiri seemingly looks better and bigger than Kiruddu National Referral Hospital. The country is growing spiritually,” he said.
Apparently, this Church has been undergoing construction for the past couple of years and it has neared completion. It should be noted that pastors in Uganda are some of the wealthiest individuals.
However, most of them cannot account for this wealth and assets. Most of it is solicited from their followers who come in different honors.
These pastors live a flamboyant and lavish lifestyle as their followers languish in poverty. Their pastors tell them to wait for their miracles to happen or even find their kingdom made of gold and full of bliss in heaven.
There have severally been calls from some members of the public to regulate these people. They feel like their activities should be regulated and audited. Others even want the churches taxed, a thing these religious leaders have vehemently opposed.

![[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.
