However, when it came to their very own, it is very serious and the public really needs to pray. Social media has been awash with tweets saying these are double standards of the people in the government.
“When @ZaakeFrancis was in America treating a leg, it was political gymnastics. When @KakwenzaRukira showed a bruised back, it was called makeup.
And when @HEBobiwine was limping to court in Gulu, that was a public stunt. But when one of them is sick, everyone should kneel & pray!!!,” a one Seven Seas wrote.
So many people seemed to agree with that tweet and they jumped on the train of criticizing the people in power.
“In addition, they killed women and children in November 2020 and they said they were rioters and the nonrioters were killed by stray bullets. Then Chris said they caused that because they were undressing women in yellow,” a one Paul tweeted.
However, some people didn’t seem to agree with this because according to them, no one should return evil for evil no matter what. They say the only thing that was asked of them was to pray and nothing else.
“Whosoever asks shall be given unto. They have asked for prayers for his quick recovery, maybe u guys didn’t need prayers since u were sure of the political comedy that was moving on !!”

![[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.
