According to her, a stranger has warned her through a member of her Kakumiro based family to ‘’back off our deals or face it.’’
Ms. Nabbanja didn’t mention details but the indefatigable Prime Minister, just days ago, rejected the supply of substandard blankets and beans. These were to be given to victims of resurgent floods in the Kasese District for relief
The Prime Minister has since rejected the explanation of her permanent secretary. She even asked the police and State House Anti-Corruption Unit to investigate the matter.
On Friday, Ms. Nabbanja revealed that a messenger she did not name, traveled from Kampala all the way to Kakumiro, her country home.
The messenger intended to deliver a warning message to the Prime Minister through one of her family members.
‘’If somebody can drive from Kampala up to my home area to look for my brother who is a town clerk in the village to ask him such a question, that means something is wrong,’’ she told the press on Friday.
She further said she would inform her boss, the Head of State because she said she cannot take this matter lightly.
Where do Nabbanja’s problems come from
Ms. Nabbanja, a climber within the ruling NRM party recently received elevation to Prime Minister ahead of several other senior cadres.
President Museveni reasoned that she would provide so much-needed answers to the persistent corruption in government.
She has, however, had her job clearly cut out, as warning bells have rung for her before she even makes the first step.

![[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.
