Bobi Wine has praised the late Sheikh Nuhu Muzaata Batte saying he was such a great man and its a great loss for the country.
“Islam, Buganda & Uganda have lost a great man with ‘tough love’. We that grew up as orphans found a parent in Sheikh Muzaata. He was life’s teacher. He always gave me a sense of security,” NUP Presidential candidate, Robert Kyagulanyi said.
Bobi Wine also said the presence of Sheikh Muzaata always gave him a sense of security. Every time he would be in a place where Muzaata is, there was a sense of safety he felt.
He praised him for always keeping him under check and every time he looked as if he was losing his way, Muzaata would call him and speak sense into him and put him back in line.
His sting on government;
Kyagulanyi also took that same opportunity to express his dissatisfaction in the current government. He says the government has done so little for the Muslim fraternity. The NUP president said up to now the Muslims that were murdered have never got any kind of justice.
Bobi Wine even pointed out that so many Muslims are in jail for crimes that didn’t commit and he promised that as soon as he becomes president, he will ensure they are released especially if they are innocent.
It is still unclear what killed the late Sheikh Nuhu Muzaata because there has been a clear autopsy read by the doctors. He has been in hospital for a while after getting an attack from home.
Bobi wine questioned the efficiency of the health system that can’t even come out to say what really killed an important person like Sheikh Nuhu Muzaata.
Muzaata is to be buried today at Kigogwa.

![[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.
