Our pry at the Ministry of Gender, Labor and Social Development at Simbamayo House, tell us that Sheeba has of late been frequenting their labor export department seeking advice and requisites for establishing one.

The source who is privy to details of such applications told this reporter that unlike many labor exporters, Sheeba will not be flying over Entebbe to destinations like Dubai or Quata but rather, to Malaysia.

We are told she has almost fulfilled all the required terms and is only remaining with availing proof of financial capacity. verified income tax returns for the past one (1) year and a savings account showing a maintaining balance of not less than UGX100,000,000.

It should be noted that Sheeba, in the recent past has been a frequent traveler to the same destination, with word doing rounds in Kampala that she has been part of an entourage that deliver ladies that provide ‘escort’ services out of the country. It is after realizing how to run the business and how lucrative it is that she has decided to venture into the same.

Sheeba has clandestinely been  running an NGO, ‘ Sheeba Cares’ through her Holic Pads  and nickers initiative benefitting over 600 women and girls in ghetto areas of Ggaba – Katongo, Makindye – Nabisalu and Namuwongo zone A. It is said that this is the same pool of human resource that Sheeba intends to export in a bid to change their lives.

The idea is mine: Buchaman Raises Red Flag as Ministry of Gender Moves to Take over Ghetto Talent Project https://theinvestigatornews.com/2021/10/the-idea-is-mine-buchaman-raises-red-flag-as-ministry-of-gender-moves-to-take-over-ghetto-talent-project/#utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=the-idea-is-mine-buchaman-raises-red-flag-as-ministry-of-gender-moves-to-take-over-ghetto-talent-project Fri, 01 Oct 2021 21:08:22 +0000 https://theinvestigatornews.com/?p=1860 KAMPALA, Uganda: Self-proclaimed Ghetto president, Mark Bugembe aka Buchaman, has attacked the ministry of Gender and social development for hijacking his  ‘Every Talent is a Project in the ghetto’ proposal.

Buchaman alleges that the new initiative dubbed ‘Ghetto go Talent search & health awareness campaign’ is his own project pasted by the ministry without bothering to talk to him or pay him copyright fees.

“I and my wife, Mama Ghetto, presented the project to Gen Salim Saleh’s Operation Wealth Creation (OWC). The good General forwarded the idea to the Gender ministry,” Buchaman states.

He adds that had he known that the ministry was going to snatch the golden idea, he wouldn’t have tabled it in the first place. “I didn’t know I was handing meat to the hyenas for safe custody. I thought I was going to be part of the project. Now, see how the powerful people have stolen from me the weaker soul,” Buchaman agonizes.

Now that the technocrats at the ministry have thrown him out of the project, Buchaman vows he is going to take up the piracy with the powers that be. “They seem to be mistaking me for a joking subject, but I can prove a fighter when my rights are being trampled upon. Are these people undermining me just because I am a disabled guy?” the ‘Lwaki Temujangala’ singer, fumes.

As part of the initiative, Buchaman states how he has been engaging the ghetto community in a football tournament that is still underway, which he says, the ministry wants to take over as well.        

The Minister of state for youth and Children Affairs Hon. Sarah Mateke Nyirabashitsi, launched the new initiative at the Uganda Media Center on Thursday.

The initiative will focus on talent and skills development, health camps on reproductive health, mitigating effects of mental health caused by COVID-19 and drug abuse with voting commencing on November 11 to 19, and a grand finale on November 20.

“The Ghetto Got Talent Search and health awareness campaign presents an opportunity for the gender ministry to explore a different framework, for doing research that connects more explicitly with the ministry’s objective of supporting marginalized communities, in becoming healthy actors of social change through their various skillset by having community members actually engaged in and designing the research processes,” Nyirabashitsi said.

However, Buchaman has vowed to sabotage the campaign and summoned his ghetto army to counter react the promoters of the drive unless the ministry and his team reach an a agreeable consensus
