Kasumba wondered why people want the head of a national carrier to earn like a school Headmaster. He added that what Bamuturaki earns is what her job specifies.
Therefore, people should stop raising dust. And let Bamuturaki do what her job requires of her.
“We have an Airline Manager who earns what her job requires her to earn. We are raising dust that it is a lot of money. Do we need an Airline Manager to be earning like a school headmaster?”
In his defense of Bamuturaki, Kasumba added that she’s pursuing a Masters of Arts degree in Public Administration at Makerere University.
Besides, to doubt her ability to lead the Airlines is questioning President Museveni’s credibility who is the appointing authority.
Kasumba also added that Bamuturaki has 15 years of experience for the job despite it only needing 10 years.
According to Kasumba, this won’t make news at all since its positive. Furthermore, Kasumba said that he wonders what people will say if they know how much he, a Bible Theologian, earns for just reading news.
This is if they are so irritated by Bamuturaki’s salary yet she leads one of the country’s biggest entities.
“People say the salary of Jennifer Bamuturaki is so much money, wait when they know how much a Biblical Theologian earns for working as news anchor and hosting shows @nbstv. How 20k USD is so much money is what I am still unable to understand. I just don’t get this yet,” said Kasumba.
Bamuturaki’s and Uganda Airlines case is still in COSASE. The administration of Uganda Airlines shocked the nation with their outrageous salaries.
Despite earning an enormous 87m shillings, Bamuturaki doesn’t have the academic papers she said she possesses.

![[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.
