The former council member of Makerere University and now a National Resistance Movement Electoral Commission chairperson, Dr Tanga Odoi is very sure that President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni will forever be Uganda’s blessing no matter what.
According to Tanga Odoi, those who feel his presence and reaction over different decisions are obviously misled by those few who don’t believe in him.
Odoi went on and said that President Museveni listens to almost everyone hinting about the rebel MPs who defied and voted against several party positions including Ssekikubo Theodore (Lwemiyaga), Tinkasimire Barnabas (Buyaga West), Mbwatekamwa Gaffa (Kasambya), Ssenyonga Muyanja (Mukono South), Maurice Kibalya (Bugabula South), Rwabwogo Sylvia(Kabarole Woman) and Sam Lyomoki Sam (Workers). The above MPs met president Museveni seeking for pardon.
It has been his norm for 35 years.
Tang Odoi respects the President due to the fact that he still negotiates with the people in the cabinet who always betray him.
“The blessing for Uganda is having President Museveni as a leader now. To have that president who listens to rebel MPs is a blessing. The value of the president we have is in handling such contradictions. He is sitting with people in the Cabinet who were shooting at him. That is the value of the presidency as an institution.” Tanga Odoi says.

![[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.
