In Mbarara/Sheema—

High court in Mbarara has today 17^th May 2021 adjourned to 1^st June 2021 a case in which a woman from Sheema district accuses Kabwohe Health centre IV workers of prescribing ARVS for her though she was not infected.

Farida Kiconco 36 years a resident of Ntungamo ,Kiziiba,Kagango Sheema municipality alleges she was started on ARVS though she was HIV negative, which affected her health.

Kiconco narrates that she went to Kabwohe health centre IV in 2017 and took blood samples which turned out positive.

She explains that doctors advised her to start taking ARVS which she did for some years but later developed general body weakness with her skin turning yellowish which prompted her to seek medical assistance at Mbarara Regional referral hospital where she was tested for the second time and results turned out negative.

Reply to written statement of defense

Kiconco Farida who is represented by Counsel Aruho Amon of Mubiru and Aruho company advocates laments that family property like land has been sold off to cater for her worrying life and she now demands for one billion shillings from Sheema Local Government

However the magistrate who presided over today’s sitting His worship Samuel Twakire has adjourned the case on ground that the judge in this case was absent.

Our efforts to engage Sheema municipality town clerk who was present in court were futile since she never wanted to go on record.

In Kanungu–

Kinkiizi East Member of Parliament Dr. Chris Baryomunsi has refuted claims that he was behind the impounding of iron sheets that he had donated to Kashayo church of Uganda in Rugyeyo Sub County in Kanungu District.

The iron sheets were impounded after the church leaders refused to use them and instead opted for those from tycoon Garuga which came later.

This created suspicious rumors that the church leaders had sold the iron sheets and shared the money amongst themselves.

Concerned Christians lodged a complaint at Police and the iron sheets were impounded until this weekend when they were returned.

According to the Uganda Police CID Spokesman Charles Twine, the impounded iron sheets had been subjected to investigations.

While responding to our reporter about the complaint ,Dr. Baryomunsi said he never complained to police and those making the claim should have inquired from police about the source of the complaint.

He said he has no problem with the iron sheets being returned to the Church since he had donated them to the Church to do God’s work.
