The Archbishop of the Church of Uganda, the Most Rev. Dr. Stephen Kaziimba Mugalu has appealed to political leaders to avoid violence and promote peace, in the run-up to the general elections.
Dr. Kaziimba asked politicians to avoid a repeat of the violence witnessed during the recently concluded by election for the Kawempe Division North Member of Parliament.
He made the remarks while celebrating the Easter carols and Holy Communion prayers held at Parliament on Thursday.
The prayers were attended by Members of Parliament, Parliament staff and selected members of the public.
Dr. Kaziimba also urged politicians to have trust in God, and keep hope alive as they prepare for the 2026 general elections.
The Government Chief Whip, Hon. Hamson Obua, who represented the Deputy Speaker, Thomas Tayebwa, advised Christians to pay more attention to their endings, as opposed to the beginning.
He said that just like Christ emerged victorious after days of persecution, Christians ought to pray to God to have stronger endings. END.
