Terrible! Uganda government is set to fine women and girls who give birth at their homes. The move is intended to quash the trend of women who shun hospitals during pregnancy.

The leaders of Adjumani district in northern Uganda explain that the law has been made because many women experience unsafe deliveries in their homes.

According to the new law, the women and their male partners would both be penalized. However, sections of Ugandans have criticised the move saying that some pregnant women walk over 30 miles to reach nearby health facilities.

Nixon Owole, the district chairperson of Adjumani says the law has been put in place to force women to utilise the health facilities. He added that the law is meant to promote safe deliveries in the country.

The song ‘Nabuulo’ is in praise of Bukenya’s mother for giving birth to the former Vice President who is currently seen as an upcoming pillar in the country’s politics and a growing threat to the ruling National Resistance Movement government.

We hear that Bukenya has coughed in millions of money into the formation of this album. The full names of Bukenya’s mother are Francesca Nabuulo, a Muganda by tribe and Bukenya is her only son in life.

Bukenya is going to be the second richest man in Uganda to have hired a musician to compose a song in praise of his mother. The first one was Charles Mbire who hired Bobi Wine and Juliana Kanyomozi to produce ‘Maama Mbire’ hit in praise of his mother.
