With the country currently in the phases of easing lockdown, Archbishop of Kampala Dr Cyprian Kizito Lwanga has asked Government to open up places of worship.
While leading today’s mass at Rubaga Cathedral, Archbishop Lwanga said Uganda’s motto is For God and my country, so worship centres are the only places where people can run to, to seek God’s guidance, protection and intervention in these hard times.
He said though he is pushing for the opening up of these holy places, health guidelines should be maintained.
President Museveni is set to address the country tomorrow on Monday, June 1, about COVID-19. Majority of the population has returned to work and only waiting for public transport to return on June 4. Museveni is expected to however determine its fate given that government is yet to start the distribution of free masks as promised. In his address, the President said it’s mandatory for every person to put on a mask in public.
