“In the course of arresting the nine suspects, one Abdul Kateregga was injured and while he was being taken to hospital for medical attention, he bled due to injuries sustained and was pronounced dead on arrival at Mulago hospital,” the police spokesperson Emilian Kayima said in a statement
Museveni hailed CMI regarding Kirumira’s death.
The president has lifted the lid off the story on the operation revealing that the suspects are accused of being part of the group that killed former Buyende DPC Muhammad Kirumira last month.
“I am sure I am speaking on behalf of many of you when I congratulate the CMI squads which jailed up many people regarding the death of Late Kirumira on Friday night,”Museveni said in a statement.
He commented that one of the criminals jailed during this analysis was a former Democratic Forces member who had been granted amnesty by government.
“In the process, one of them, by the names of Kateregga Abdu, was shot and later died of his injuries. It turns out that Kateregga was one of the ADF terrorists that had benefited from Amnesty in the past.”
“This, therefore, is to put on notice all the killers that the wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23 ).”
He said that the suspects will soon appear in courts of law but urged any member of the public with information about the group to avail it to police.
It should be remembered that Muhammad Kirumira was shot dead by unknown assailants allegedly traveling on motorcycles near his home in Bulenga, along the Kampala- Mityana road on the evening of September 8.

![[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.
