Hon Ssemujju said he doesn’t understand what role Buchaman and Catherine Kusasira play as presidential advisors.
These two were chosen by the president himself to be advisors in the last general elections of 2021. After the elections, they said they were government workers and wanted to be put on the payroll like any other workers.
Fortunately, their wish came true and they started receiving monthly salaries from the government.
Uganda is having financial challenges right now after the World Bank cut off loan extension to the country. Consequently, this happened after the anti-homosexuality bill was signed into law by President Museveni.
As a way of trying to cut down spending by the government, Hon Ssemujju proposed a few changes. This also included cutting off some people who receive government salaries yet they are not supposed to.
He said also people like Buchaman and Catherine Kusasira don’t deserve to be paid. However, this didn’t sit well with Buchaman.
He said Hon Ssemujju is very selfish. He also said he is waiting for him in 2026 to see what he will tell people in ghettos yet he doesn’t do anything for them.
“Hon Ssemujju Nganda is best selfish. He doesn’t want other people to be well on top of all the salary he receives. I am waiting for him in 2026 to see what he will tell ghetto people,” he said.

![[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.
