By L. Ssempijja A woman was suspended for 90 days from her home by her husband having been caught using the former presidential candidate Col. Dr. Kizza Besigye's posters to light a charcoal stove. This happened in Kawaala, Kasubi, at the home of Kaweesi, a staunch Besigye campaigner. He told Mama Namanda to go to her parents for 90 days for having used Besigye's posters in a bad way. Kaweesi claimed he remained with about 50 of Besigye's posters after the elections. However, he noticed that their number was going down very fast. He only found out what was happening after catching his wife using them to light the charcoal stove used for cooking. Kaweesi told The New Vision he was very serious on the issue and what could cool him down was not to see his wife for at least three months. He was afraid something harmful could happen if his wife stayed around. Namanda complied and went back to her parents' home in Nabusanke. Ends
