“I, therefore, thought it was fine since I was not to perform in Uganda. I admit my mistake and ask the president of Uganda to forgive me for not following his guidelines. He should understand that we are his people and he should care about us. We are not working and we shall die of hunger,’’ Bafana stressed.
On the contrary, Bafana said he is ready to fight for the unprivileged Ugandans who suffer silently without platforms.
The police arrested the raga/reggae dancehall artiste after completing his 14 days of mandatory quarantine in Mutukula. He and 4 friends held a prohibited show at Happiness Mitek where they were undergoing quarantine.
A number of people were displeased by the arrest including the 2021 Presidential hopeful Robert Kyagulanyi Sentamu. He took to his Facebook page accusing police of tormenting Bafana for promoting People Power in Tanzania. He even asked police to arrest the president of Uganda as well who had then just returned from Tanzania.
As the clique is still under detention, we await a response from the president as well as a court ruling on their punishment. I would say Bafana is smart to send out a public apology to the president as he is prepping to address the nation.
Ziza Bafana’s brief bio;
Ziza Bafana started his professional music career in 2011 and has never looked back. He has become one of the best new school artists in the country. Not very many artists of this generation stand out artistically but Ziza Bafana has proved to be a master of his unique dancehall music genre.

![[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.
