In the capital, the head of the Orthodox Church in Uganda, Metropolitan Jeronymos Muzeeyi, delivered his Easter message from St. Nicholas Cathedral in Namungoona, urging Ugandans to embrace tolerance and reject hatred ahead of the upcoming elections.
While delivering his homily during the Easter mass at Lubaga Cathedral, Archbishop Ssemogerere clarified that the pastoral letter was not intended to single out any individual or group.
“Let me say this, Bobi Wine and Mpuuga would not reconcile just because they came to church and sat together. In fact, whoever does that is making them commit the sin of hypocrisy. Making them sit together is just for pictures—it is cosmetic but not helpful at all. Reconciliation must come from the heart and should not be forced,” Fr. Mugambe said.
