He identified the two suspects as Luciano Tumwesigye and Tumusiime Ruth. The two suspects are both residents of Nyamijumbi village in Kigiro Parish, Kebisoni Sub-county in Rukungiri district.
Last evening during a press conference, Maate said the two got arrested after the death of Dickson Orireba. Dickson was a casual laborer at the home of one of the suspects Luciano Tumwesigye.
Apparently, it is alleged that Kwikiriza Emmanuel found the body lying at Tumwesigye’s gate in a pool of blood. This happened while Emmanuel proceeded to St Jerome Secondary school Ndama for work.
Kwikiriza informed the deceased’s employer and his adjacent neighbor Mark Rugogo simultaneously.
Maate said that Emmanuel continued for work after this but found other people on the way, whom he told about the incident, including the area chairman Kabagambe Francis. The Chairman immediately alerted the police at Mabanga Police post who registered a case of murder.
Local authorities and residents headed to Luciano’s home but to their surprise didn’t find the body. However, they discovered it later dumped 70 meters away in some eucalyptus trees with deep head cuts.
Maate said the police registered a case of murder at Rukungiri Central Police Station under reference number CRB 885/ 2022. This will help in investigations while hunting for Rukirabashaija who is on the run.

![[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.
