Kampala, (UG):- The Senior Presidential Advisor (Political Affairs) and Manager of the Office of the NRM National Chairman (ONC), SPA/PA Hajjat Hadijah Namyalo Uzeiye has pledged total commitment of her office towards supporting the Bazzukulu pastors as part of government efforts to ensure wealth creation for improved livelihoods of the Wanainchi.
Hajjat Hadijah made this pledge on Wednesday at the launch of the Reformed Generation of Pastors and Preachers Association (RGPPA), an organization of visionary pastors in Kyebando, a suburb on the outskirts of Kampala.
“The ONC does not discriminate against any faith. As you know, the government of H.E. President Yoweri Museveni has provided us all with a platform to freely practice our religions,” SPA Namyalo said in her speech during the function held at Trinity Church in Kyebando.
On the importance of empowerment, Hajjat Hadijah emphasized; “Our commitment is to support initiatives like these that uplift our people. It does not pay to preach on an empty stomach.”
The ONC Manager’s remarks were met with thunderous applause from a crowd of over 1,200 pastors, who expressed their agreement and appreciation.
Apostle Benson Kayondo, the leader of the RGPPA, reciprocated the gesture by pledging the association’s unwavering support to President Museveni’s leadership. The group, which unites young Pentecostal preachers from across Uganda, later offered prayers for Hajjat Hadijah’s success in her endeavours.
In what is now known as her signature style, Hajjat Hadijah closed the event on a high note by serenading the congregation with Sylver Kyagulanyi’s uplifting song, Ekisa Ekinondoola, with the preachers singing along as the spirit of the Lord descended.
