Pastor Yiga Abizaayo Augustine breathes his last at Nsambya hospital. He has been battling with liver failure and wounds in the intestines. His health kept declining by the day to the point that he was even announced dead when he was still alive.
He has been the CEO of ABS television and senior pastor of Revival Christian Church of Kawaala.
He has been a very controversial pastor and did his ministry in a very strange manner. The fun-packed services attracted so many people especially women who always wanted their husbands back.
He was mostly known for his ‘ Abizaayo’ phrase. He claimed that he could take back witchcraft to the person who sent it to the victim.
By the time Pastor Yiga Abizaayo died, his son had already taken over the Ministry and probably he will continue now that his dad is dead. Pastor Andrew Jengo, a spitting image of his dad has done a very good job and actually people are bonding with him.
However Rumors have it that unlike his dad, pride has already taken over him to the point that he doesn’t pick up calls from just anyone.
One of the most remembered events that the Pastor was involved in was the scandal of Maggie Kayima where she appeared naked with her sister. This footage was aired on ABS television and presented by Pastor Yiga himself. The story changed however when Maggie Kayima said it was Pastor Yiga that set her up.
It is of course very unfortunate that Pastor Yiga has passed on. The Church is yet to communicate the burial details.

![[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.
