Sheikh Imran Ssali, the Uganda Muslim Supreme Council(UMSC) Secretary for Dawah (Islamic Propagation & Preaching) has advised parents to show their children love as they are getting ready to go back to school.
He says, it’s very important for parents to prepare their children since it’s been a long holiday.
“Show them parental love and care and demonstrate to them that no one can love them better than you,” Sheikh Imran Ssali said.
He advised parents to choose the schools that teach both secular and religious studies. He emphasized that education without religion is so challenging in this current contemporary and competitive world.
To the school owners, however, Ssali passionately advised them to make education centers enjoyable. By all means, he says they should promote morality. And also mutual understanding with parents in regard to the payments of school dues.
He urged children to utilize their time efficiently and be ambitious to study so that they are useful to their families and communities.
The government released the 2022 school calendar for the reopening of schools in January 2022. Schools will open on 10th Jan and run for 14 weeks.
The second term will begin on May 9, 2022 and will run until August 12, 2022 while the third term is set for 5th September 2022 to 9th December 2022.
With such a fixed program, parents have to get their money ready. Meanwhile, students have to get their mental state in the system.
However, with all the issues, the world has been going through for two years, schools, parents and children should understand each other.

![[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.
