Sheema district woman MP Hon. Jacklet Atuhaire Rwabukurukuru has vowed to change a song and it’s rhythm that women must depend on men for everything.
Hon. Jacklet said that through her women programmes such as cooking stove and charcoal making, piggery, poultry among others, she must make sure that by the end of this year, every female in Sheema is financially independent.
Jacklet said that most females suffer after being neglected by their husbands adding that if such women had their own income they would not face all that.
Agatha Ayebazibwe from Nyakibeere, Kasaana Sub countyone of the trainees in stove and charcoal making told www.mknewslink.com that since she got married, she has suffered two problems of poverty and insufficient firewood.

She praised Hon. Jacklet noting that Sheema district has never elected a good leader like her.

According to Clare Mucunguzi Jacklet’s program supervisor, one doesn’t need a single coin to start a stove and charcoal making business since all materials needed such as soil, water, cassava flour are free of charge.

She added that they are to train all interested women in Sheema district on how to make charcoal stove, rear pigs and chicken until everyone is satisfied and at no cost then give the trainees a startup capital for only those interested in piggery and poultry.
Clare added that they will not get tired until every woman in Sheema can afford her own expensive clothing.
