President Paul Kagame of Rwanda has apparently received an unusual message from his Ugandan counterpart Museveni. This message dubbed “special message” apparently was well received by Kagame.
Uganda’s permanent representative to the United Nations, Adonia Ayebare delivered this message. Immediately after doing her job, she ran to social media to thank President Kagame for being receptive.
“Thank you President Paul Kagame for warmly receiving me today to deliver President Museveni’ special message,” Ayebare tweeted.
This comes after the cold relationship between Rwanda and Uganda. This relationship has been bitter since 2017. The two countries just started having a cold war which led to the closure of boarders for sometime.
Not only that, both countries lost lives in these fights especially Ugandans which clearly went far.
However, there has been some light lately that this cold war will stop. Recently Museveni’s son, Muhoozi even called Kagame his uncle.
He also said whoever fights Kagame, is attacking the first family. This could mean that there have been some talks before hand to correct the situation.
“This is my uncle, Afande Paul Kagame. Those who fight him are fighting my family. They should all be careful,” Lt Gen Muhoozi tweeted .
It would do both countries good if they just ended these petty fights. Somehow, it affected business and also keeps Ugandans in fear while in Rwanda.

![[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.
