When passion meets purpose, our lives become meaningful and then impactful.

I met Gloria Laker Aciro Adiiki. She is one of Uganda’s female journalists who has covered war stories. She narrates the story to AWiM News below:

Gloria narrates, “As a former war and peace reporter during the northern Uganda LRA war, this is my peacebuilding story on how I reported the war.

As a young displaced girl back in 1997, it was challenging to enter the newsroom with no experience and no journalism training. In addition, my living condition as a displaced girl was appalling. I was exposed to sexual harassment, name callings just for being a girl holding a camera because society at the time saw news reporting as a male job. Amidst these, my living condition was pathetic, imagine sleeping on cold verandas behind tall buildings to avoid rebel abduction. During this time, nearly all social services shut down due to the rebellion.

It was a difficult period. My parents fed us on the little available relief food since we had run away from our village and got displaced in the town suburbs where we lived in a miller machine house built and roofed with only iron sheets, associated with extreme cold at night and extreme heat during the day. Inside there was a maize miller machine, which also was not safe as the rebels were raiding town suburbs hence the reason we had to always move with our beddings (local mats and blankets) to sleep on verandas of town buildings, we were called “night commuters”.

This was equally difficult for all the journalists displaced by the war yet we had to report the conflict.

Every morning, my young siblings walked back to the miller, our second home with my mum to prepare for school. I would head to the newsroom carrying a polythene bag and inside was extra cloth. I began my journalism career with New Vision. In the office, we had a good washroom and from here I was able to take a bath, dress and wait for my colleagues Pelegrine Otonga, James Oweka and Dennis Ojwee to come so that we conduct our daily editorial meetings.

  What kept her going

Despite all the challenges, I was so determined to tell the world about the human rights violations and impact of the war on vulnerable people including my family and the entire Acholi community.

The suffering turned me into a strong and determined journalist. So I courageously put in a lot of effort in learning how to write war stories from my experienced colleagues and with the support of Pelegrine Otonga who was our editor and a senior journalist. I quickly learnt nearly all the basics fast, thanks to Pelegrine who would not allow me to go to the field without James or any other male journalists. He made sure I was in the company of a male reporter for my safety. Pelegrine protected me after my dad took me to New Vision offices when I insisted I wanted to report about the war, and he told Pelegrin to train and protect me. Given my achievements today, I am proud to say Pelegrine did well.

Reporting the LRA war was associated with watching terrific scenes such as dead bodies, landmine blasts, bullet wounds, and burnt trucks and the malnourished children and child soldiers rescued from the rebels.

Imagine photographing dead bodies with flies oozing over these bodies, imagine taking pictures of malnourished rescued people from the rebels with peeling feet full of pus.

Courageously and as a youth at that time, the more I saw these pathetic conditions, the more I wanted the war known so that the international community could come to our rescue because as time went on the LRA rebels had become impossible to counter. The rebels were flamboyant, dangerously destructive and very elusive to catch.

Coining peace stories in war reporting

With all the atrocities, with no signs of the war coming to an end, my colleagues and I began redirecting our reporting from the victimizing alarming reports we were filing to angling peace stories which help in pushing parties to dialogue and this created room for subsequent peace talks. In achieving this, we became one united peace mouthpiece/voice regardless of the different media organisations, we had one goal to report the war in ways that could reconcile people.

Practically, one of the things we did was to choose our words carefully and built good relations with the government soldiers because they were our only sure and safe means of transport to rebel-infested areas. “However, this did not compromise our reporting principles of objective journalism.” At this time the government army needed us as much as we needed them.

As time went on the rebels also began speaking to us on realising the power of the media in conflict.

However, to improve on my reporting, I had to do several short causes in line with war and peace reporting, thanks to my mentor Ms Margaret Sentamu, Executive Director of Uganda Media Women’s Association who identified me and covered my fees and I was able to do a diploma in journalism. I am proud of Ms Margaret because her sacrifices and efforts in bringing up female journalists have turned me into the journalist I am today, she boosted my commitment to war and peace reporting and this laid a strong foundation for me, first as a war reporter then as a peace journalist and later I was able to go to the university and studied a bachelor’s degree in Journalism and Mass Communication.

Towards the period of the peace process, more young girls emerged and they did cover the conflict and post-war errors extremely well. They had more advantages with the coming of the internet, unlike our time when we had to walk every evening to the only fax machine in the district at the post office, line up and fax our story for the day hence this challenge moulded me to a strong and determined female journalist.

My experience and my colleagues made me become a more confident female journalist in reporting conflict areas and promoted peace journalism work in Uganda.”

As a result, Gloria has received recognition and awards for her peace reporting. In 2022 October, she was one of the six finalists for the United State Institute for Peace, 2022 Women Building Peace finalist, and in 2019 Gloria was honoured and awarded with a presidential Golden Jubilee Medal by Ugandan President Yoweri Museveni for her contribution to peace in northern Uganda.

In 2016, Gloria was honoured and featured on BBC Outlook as an inspirational journalist for risking her life and covering the LRA war. In 2008 Gloria won a BBC communicating justice project in Uganda as the best journalist.

In April 2011 Gloria was awarded by Centre for Global Peace Journalism at Park University USA for outstanding performance in the implementation of peace and electoral project.

Gloria now uses her experience to train and mentor young African journalists on the roles of the media in peacebuilding and conflict management. Her effort is geared towards preventing media-induced violence and encouraging peace reporting and she is doing this through the Peace Journalism Foundation she established.

The passionate journalist is amplifying UNESCO’s vision of achieving lasting peace and security all over the world.

She has influenced several journalists in Uganda that can advocate for peace. The city of Gulu where the war had broken out is getting peaceful bit by bit as people resettle in.

Different Organisations like War Victims and Children’s Networking have also come up to ensure that returnee victims and children are completely resettled back into the community. After ten years there are still several challenges as said by former LRA abductee Stella Lanaam. She said the war victim’s children cannot access national identity cards as most of them were as a result of rape, or unwanted sex and others were deserted by their parents. She called upon the government under NIRA (National Registration Authority) to be flexible for these children to access national Identity cards.

While at the commemoration of the 20 years of the Rome Statute in Netherlands, the speaker of parliament Rebecca Kadaga reassured that Uganda had no intentions of leaving the International Criminal Court.

“I want to begin by reassuring the President [of the ICC] that Uganda will not withdraw from the Rome Statute but we will continue working together,” said Kadaga

In the Heads of State Summit in Addis Ababa February 2017, Uganda voted in favour of the African Union decision to withdraw from the ICC after a motion was instated by Kenya was debated by heads of state.

“Of course, we are part of the African Union and there have sometimes been difficult situations between the ICC and the African Union. There are areas of reservation,” said Kadaga said.

Uganda has received heavy criticism from the ICC for collaborating with Sudanese President Omar Bashir, who has cases to answer in the court on allegations of stirring the war crimes and crimes against humanity committed in Darfur.

However, Kadaga defended Uganda’s actions describing Bashir as “an important actor” in the region, stressing his efforts and centrality in prospects for peace in the war torn and volatile South Sudan.

Khartoum and Kampala, previously at diplomatic crossroads, are now working to facilitate the recent shaky peace deal between former Vice President Riek Machar and President Salva Kiir led forces.
Kadaga said Uganda stands for a position where “justice is not sacrificed at the altar of peace, and peace is not sacrificed at the altar of justice”.

ICC has become unpopular over its actions of targeting only African states the claim the court persistently deny. It therefore appointed Fatou Bom Bensouda of Gambia as International Criminal Court‘s chief prosecutor so as to give it an African face.

Burundi and South Africa have formally petitioned to withdraw from the ICC although they have not yet officially left.

Speaker has urged the Court to consider the citizenship of children born during conflicts which cut across regions saying that women abducted by rebels and moved to areas away from their home have children with no identity.

“There is a fundamental problem; for instance a rebel grabs a woman in Congo, takes her to the Central African Republic, and has a child there. Neither of the parents is a citizen of CAR; there are no birth certificates then they move to a third country. Where does that child belong?” Kadaga pondered.

The director of public prosecution, Mike Chibita, has asked members of parliament to include in the prevention and prohibition of human sacrifice and harmful practices bill a provision that sentences persons involved in child sacrifice to death.

Mike Chibita

Chibita made the remarks while speaking at a consultative meeting on the proposed prevention and prohibition of human sacrifice and harmful practices bill held at parliament’s conference hall organized by the parliamentary forum on children.

He said that child sacrifice has continued due to lack of a serious law, calling for a death penalty as a serious provision to send a loud message to perpetrators of child sacrifice.

He questioned that if   there is a death penalty to persons who murder adults who can defend themselves what about a child.

He also said that the bill should include a section that gives part of the assets of the offenders to the victim of crime to rehabilitate him of her.

He said that there must be a law against finding a strange child with a witchdoctor in a shrine to deter practices of child practices.

The ministry of health has been asked to start registering all traditional healers/doctors as a way of following their work to control the rates of child sacrifice in the country.

This call was made by the Ayivu county Member of Parliament, Bernad Atiku, who is fronting a private member’s bill known as the Anti-Human Sacrifice and Harmful traditional practices bill 2017. Atiku was granted leave by parliament in August this year to prepare this bill.

Atiku noted that with the traditional healers working in an informal sector leaves many at liberty to involve in ritual murders because there no rules that govern their work.

Addressing the press at parliament as he gave update on his bill, Atiku said that its high time government comes out to register and get evidence from those who claim to be traditional doctors and inspect their medicine, certify them and be given licenses as this will limit the quack ones that take people’s lives as they hoodwink the public who go for services.

He said starting this Friday, he will start receiving public views on what they think should be done in order to streamline the traditional healing sector nothing that the districts with high cases include Mukono, Jinja, Busia, Kayunga and Buikwe among others.

Member of Parliament for Ayivu County, Bernard Atiku

Parliament has granted leave to the Member of Parliament for Ayivu County, Bernard Atiku, who intends to introduce a private member’s bill for an Act entitled; “The prevention and prohibition of human sacrifice and harmful practices bill 2017”.

Atiku’s  motion seeking leave was seconded by the Woman Member of Parliament for Kumi district who is also the chairperson of the Uganda Women Parliamentary Association, Monica Amoding.

Atiku told Parliament that despite the existence of international instruments, national laws and government efforts in place to protect individuals right to life and degrading acts, ritual killings and human sacrifice practices are on rise in the country and that children are increasingly becoming the most common victims.

She said that the bill seeks to fight the growing evil of human sacrifices in Uganda saying  the witch craft Act has lost relevance in today’s circumstances.

Atiku noted that since 2009 about 219 cases of ritual murders have been reported from different parts of the country.

She pointed out that child sacrifice is highly happening in central region districts which include; Mukono, Masaka, Buikwe ,Mpigi ,Wakiso ,Kampala and in Busoga sub region especially in Jinja and few cases in West Nile and Northern Uganda

The Woman MP for Kumi district, Monica Amoding, noted that there is a feeling in the public that traditional medicine which involves blood and use of human body parts is stronger when applied to fight illness which justifies increase in cases of human sacrifice.

Government Chief Whip, Ruth Nankabirwa, said that government has no objection to this bill, saying that the mover of the bill is complimenting government efforts to stop acts of child sacrifice.

Deputy Speaker, Jacob Oulanyah granted the request for leave from Parliament to Atiku to go and prepare for the presentation of the bill.

Written by Fr Anthony Musaala

Father Anthony Aliddeki Musaala, Luteete.Tremendous thanks to all who take time to respond to my posts. Facebook interactions though sometimes tough, can help to get information out directly and quickly.

It can also help to uncover what need not be hidden. Many of you have been deeply shocked and concerned about me because you feel that I have taken a surprising new direction out of the Roman Church for perhaps unclear reasons.

Clarifications

I would now like to clarify some of these very personal reasons, why my present status with regard to the Roman Catholic church has changed, for those sympathetically inclined to listen. For those who are not, you might want to spend your time doing something else, since this will not be an easy read. It must be read in its entirety.\

Let us begin with this simple question. Is Fr Anthony Musaala a Catholic priest or not? The answer to this seemingly simple question is not a straightforward “Yes or no”.

This is not because the notion of a ‘Catholic priest’ lacks definition but because as applied to my biography it may seem to do so .

Let’s be clear. A ‘Catholic priest’ with a big letter ‘C’ means a priest who belongs to the Roman Catholic church. A ‘catholic priest’ with a small letter ‘c’ however, may mean any priest who belongs to any church which is part of the One Holy Catholic Apostolic Church, of which the Roman or Latin rite Catholic Church is only one part, not the whole.

Two answers Yes and No

So the first answer to the question of whether I am a catholic priest is Yes,

I was ordained a priest 22 years ago, by Cardinal Wamala at Lubaga, and have not yet been dismissed or laicized by the Pope no less, according to canon 292 # 2 of church law; nor have I voluntarily requested dismissal from the clerical state, for a grave reason, which I am able to do according to canon 292#3 of ecclesiastical law and which I may or may not do because of my new state.

Therefore as far as I know I am legally still both a Catholic priest with a big ‘C’ as well as a catholic priest with a small ‘c’, until I am dismissed from the clerical state or laicized.

Another answer as to the question as to whether I am a Catholic priest is a resounding No. I don’t feel like a Catholic priest anymore because I have not functioned as one for three years, due to suspension.

Though legally a Catholic priest, I am no longer one in any meaningful sense of the word, except in the sense of having once been ordained. ‘Being’ a priest is wonderful, but being a priest and not doing a priest’s work is miserable.

I am reminded of the Lord Mayor of Kampala, Mr Elias Lukwago who is by right the Lord Mayor of Kampala city, but who in fact cannot function as Mayor because he was shut out of his offices. Although hugely popular this does not assist his functioning as a Mayor. Mr Museveni even pointed this out by making rather gloating remarks about Mr Lukwago as only having the Mayoral chains and titles but no power!

So now because of a similiar situation of no priestly office or function for three years for me, and no hope of being restored to it, I have freely and deliberately decided to function as a catholic priest elsewhere, within another church which holds the catholic faith, namely the Evangelical Orthodox Church.

This small Church is not under Roman or Latin jurisdiction, nor any Eastern jurisdiction, such as Antioch or Constantinople or Moscow but is autocephalous and autonomous, having its head or Presiding Bishop in Canada.

I will function with them as a catholic priest since they are catholics too with a small ‘c’. For all intents and purposes, I will no longer minister to Roman Catholics, unless by invitation, since one cannot serve two masters.

Bible and theological matters

Next, I would like to share with you some biblical and theological insights into the priestly state and its permanent nature. Now both the royal (1 Peter2:9) and hierarchical priesthood which I received in the Roman Catholic church when I was baptised and ordained, are strictly speaking derived from Christ’s High priesthood.

It is He of whom it was written:

“You are priest for ever in the Order of Melchizadek of old” (Ps 110:4, Hebrews 7:17).

This phrase by the way, now applies to all priests in the church, not just to those ordained.In any case it is the basis for the permanent nature of the priesthood. Theologically speaking, we may say that the ‘ontological change’ (change of fundamental being) wrought by baptism and by valid ordination, is what still makes me a catholic priest ‘forever’.

Nevertheless, the actual context of my Catholic priesthood bow may render this word “forever”, quite meaningless. Priesthood is always contextual. The priesthood of repeated sacrifices in the Old covenant for instance is meaningless in the New Covenant because its context had changed. The priesthoods of the Old and New Covenants emerged from very real but different historical/social contexts, which also determined their function and meaning.

Thus Melchisedek and Christ were both eternal priests, but different kinds of priests. It’s only Christ’s perfect High priesthood of the Messianic era, and not Melchisedek’s of the pre-messianic era, which is effective for salvation, and so more truly ‘a priesthood forever’ after all. Enough..

Now my being ‘a priest forever’, is not for me divorced from my present context and reality of my being suspended Firstly, the priesthood I have is in itself is derivative; derived from that of Christ and His Church. Secondly, because I am only a human being, not divine like Christ, I am mortal not immortal; so even this priesthood I now have will only endure as long as I am alive. At my death therefore (even though in Uganda we are buried in priestly robes), my priesthood ceases , since in heaven or the other places, neither priesthood nor marriage nor any sacrament are necessary.

So the question of the present context of my priesthood is very important for me in this discussion. It seemed to me that I was in a kind of critical vacuum with no context for priesthood in the Roman Church, or at least a no viable context . That to my mind was actually to have no priesthood at all! I would have rather been dismissed altogether from priesthood than be in such a suspended ‘vegetative’ state.

How I wished the Archbishop of Kampala would have dismissed me completely from priesthood if reinstatement was not possible. But he couldn’t. I discovered that things were not so simple. The Archbishop was under pressure to keep me in the dark for as long as possible, but without saying why.

Dishonesty was at work. Twice I wrote letters of apology to him with promises by him to release me. Twice I was told that my case was too ‘complicated’, mainly because I had appealed against the Archbishop’s suspension of me to the ecclesiastical court in Rome.

Another time quite recently Archbishop Lwanga wrote me a very promising letter saying that he would speedily release me to another Catholic Diocese, only to tell me weeks later that he wouldn’t do it. Why, because my case was ‘complicated’.

Later on insiders informed me that the Archbishop had just written the letter to please and pacify me. Why? In case I disrupted the Papal visit! Here was paranoia at work.

Anyway It seemed to be the classic form of Roman Catholic traumatizing psychology. ‘Thou shalt never know what we going to do to with you…..’’ Intolerable.

Although I had continued to recognize that the priesthood was a sacred gift and a sacrament, it was also the existential mode of my own life. It was actually the whole of my life, not just a part of it. My priesthood was contoured by who I was in the here and now, by where I was now, by my age , my character, my health, my abilities, my finances and talents now, not yesterday or tomorrow. I could not just therefore continue to be a priest who did nothing, while the Archbishop dithered..

Priesthood was also my voluntary service to the people of God which had to be rendered within a specific human ambit. A priesthood without an active ministry to the people, without a flock is a dead priesthood, a contradiction; unless of course a priest has become a contemplative monk.

How therefore could I possibly endure being such a priest, and a non-priest at the same time, for three years and counting? No way, Hose, as they say in America.

Unforgiveable
There are moral, psychological and canonical considerations for being a priest which cannot be eluded, but it is also true that every single priest has shortcomings, including me. A priest who is deemed to have offended, as I was so deemed on several counts, should be assisted to seek reconciliation and not just be slyly manipulated or shunted about by ecclesiastical authority.

Very sadly, despite several attempts to humble myself and be reconciled with the church because of any of my known faults , I found only scant and sometimes pretended mercy, and even less justice at Lubaga.

Occasionally the Archbishop would seem parental or fraternal in attitude, but then the ‘episcopal dominant’ would get the better of him and all would be totally lost. His Vicars were rapacious to say the least. They met me variously with condemnation, scorn, threats or pious, hollow words offered as advice, and of course unfulfilled promises.

This led me to think , rightly or wrongly, that in the Roman Church a priest may become of no value, once condemned. His time and usefulness are no more. This was only exacerbated by the refusal by the Archbishop to offer me even minimal financial or other support during my suspension, and this from a church which I had served tirelessly for twenty years.!

Here was callousness at work, I thought! How uncharitable! Surely this was contrary to law, whether divine, ecclesiastical or civil. But whom would I go to? Even the Apostolic Nuncio was warned not to see me and refused seven requests to see me over three years, until just the other day when I put my foot down. Why should I therefore not go elsewhere?

Finally it was a fact that I had served fruitfully in many places for 20 years and that this ‘fruit’ of priestly work was seen. It could not be denied or erased from people’s minds and hearts. There was a sense in which I would always be a priest in the hearts and minds of many people, whether I wanted to or not.

Why then was I was continually to be forbidden to serve? I knew I was not indispensible but also knew my own value to the church. Since I could not simply force myself where I was not wanted , I felt that it would be better for me to go elsewhere and serve, however humbly, until such a time as I was perhaps considered ‘useful’ again.

Summary

So in sum, my unsolved tryst with the Roman Catholic church was the first cause of my migration to Orthodoxy. I remain a ‘catholic priest’ however but not a ‘Catholic’ one, since as I said I have not effectively been one for three years anyway and cannot serve two masters now.

The anguish, stress, disappointment and scandal of suspension could not go on forever. Now it is gone.

The irony of all this is that I was actually suspended for the wrong reason namely, “publishing in the media scandalous material which offended the faith without consent of the bishop” or some such, which in fact I did not do.
The ‘offensive’ essay which I had written about failing celibacy among catholic priests, sexual abuse of female minors and abandoned priests’ children, had been sent directly to the Archbishop at Lubaga, on 16th March 2013 by me but was leaked by someone else not me, and without my knowledge or consent onto the internet on 18th March 2013,

The person later confessed this at Lubaga saying why and how he did it. Archbishop Lwanga suspended me on the 19th of March 2013, one day after the essay appeared in the media. The day of suspension happens to be the day of my ordination.

Despite all these facts being known by the Archbishop he would not lift the suspension, apparently due to some other ‘secret’ allegations on my secret file! These ‘secret’ alleged offences however all proved bogus and turned out to be a kind of defamation and blackmail, and since they lacked judicial standing, I refused to have them even mentioned to me since repeating them was also tantamount to defamation.

Incidentally other suspended Catholic priests whom I know, who have since been restored to ministry, or shielded from penalties for far graver matters than my own make me think why not me? Is there here a principle of natural or unnatural selection going on here? Perhaps we will never know. It will be regrettable maybe that I was not humble enough to endure all this any longer, Or perhaps it will not be regrettable. That is yet to be seen.

So I have now I have happily got all that off my chest, and entered a relatively obscure branch of Orthodoxy, the Evangelical Orthodox Church. I must say that it is not just because the Roman Church rejected me, but also because I discovered in this new church very credible spiritual values both in its leaders with whom I have interacted, and also in its living theology, liturgy, spirituality – all of which I have had some time to engage with, in study and in prayer, and by which I am very greatly enriched and renewed.

Now let’s pray for each other, perhaps for forgiveness, and move on….Pax Christi.
Father Anthony Aliddeki Musaala, Luteete.

UGANDA’S LEAP FORWARD

Serena International Conference Centre, Kampala: March, 9, 2015

Your Excellencies, Invited Guests

Ladies and gentlemen in your respective capacities

On behalf of the members and supporters of the Forum for Democratic Change and many Ugandans across this country who share the values and aspirations that we stand for, I welcome you to this historic event when we launch our policy agenda for triggering Uganda’s Leap Forward.

Let me first of all acknowledge with gratitude and respect the distinguished service of my predecessor Col.(Rtd) Dr. Kizza Besigye and all of you leaders of our party for your collective and individual contribution in building our Party.

Party Chairperson, Madam Joyce Sebugwawo, thank you for your continued leadership and stewardship.

Thank you Madam Secretary General and your team and everybody else that has worked tirelessly to organize this event.

Yesterday March 8, 2015 was the International Women’s Day. As a Party, we celebrate the great contributions of all Ugandan women.

Those who till our farmlands, those who teach our children, those who spend sleepless nights looking after the sick, those who serve in our military, at home and abroad, those who serve in our police, prisons and intelligence services and all those running businesses, or work in our public service and the mothers of the Nation.

The values that I espouse are an outcome of the nurturing of my mother. I would not be what I am if it was not for the sacrifices and huge influence that my mother had on shaping my character. A tough disciplinarian, hard working woman of impeccable values, she was. May God rest her soul in eternal peace.

Thank you Anna Adeke for honoring this occasion and for your wonderful speech. There perhaps could be no better way to celebrate the Ugandan women and our young people than listening to you share their dreams and aspirations.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN

Today, I am profoundly humbled and honored to present to you our Party policy agenda for triggering Uganda’s Leap Forward.

Uganda’s Leap Forward is our contract with you the people. It is a contract to create a new dispensation and build a new foundation for creating opportunities for all and bring about boundless opportunities and shared prosperity.

Today’s challenges are clear and we are conscious of the burden and task before us.

We have had over two decades of jobless growth. Our country is among the 50 most corrupt countries out of 176 countries ranked in the Corruption Perception Index.

Our country is ranked as the most corrupt among the partner states of the East African Community according to the East African Bribery Index (2012).

And the Global Integrity Report 2011-12 noted for a second year running that corruption is the biggest obstacle to doing business in Uganda.

Parents across this country work very hard and sell the last of their assets to send their children to school only for them to graduate into a jobless market.

Official statistics tell us that poverty levels have gone down but out of every 100 Ugandans, 40 of them live on the edge and stand the risk of slipping back into poverty.

For over half a century since Independence, we have failed to restructure our curriculum to respond to the needs of a changing global economic architecture, the digital age and growing competitiveness.

The introduction of Universal Primary Education in 1997 has been hailed as a signature accomplishment of the ruling party. But we know that out of the 2.1 million children reported to have been enrolled in Primary One, only 485,703 sat for Primary Leaving Examinations (PLE). Since then, an average of 1.5 million children remain unaccounted for every after 7 years.

How is it possible that we keep on congratulating ourselves for improving education service delivery and yet we cannot provide a decent learning environment, much less provide a decent meal to our Nation’s children?

I can go on and on to highlight the many challenges and failures but this is not for this moment. Today, we want to share with you a policy package that will help create a new momentum to grow the economy, create decent jobs and expand opportunity for every Ugandan.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN

Let me state clearly that we by no means discount the progress that we have made as a country. And we acknowledge each of our leaders who have made a contribution towards this progress, however minimal.

However, we believe that the foundation beneath whatever progress has been made in the last 52 years is unstable and could give way when subjected to more stress.

The limits of the current leadership of our country need not be emphasized. More importantly, the limits of the policies that are being pursued are quite evident.

Economic growth has slowed down over the last 5 years, income inequality is on the rise, levels of unemployment are frightening, the delivery of public services has almost ground to a halt, and we are experiencing systematic democratic reversals.

As a people, we can choose to remain in a state of denial. However, the idea that a new leadership with a new set of ideas, a new commitment and greater discipline is needed cannot be overemphasized. We need to trigger and sustain a new momentum to spur inclusive growth, eradicate extreme poverty that is trapping over 40 percent of our people in perpetual vulnerability and create a new optimism for our young people.

Today, I am greatly honored to present to you and the people of Uganda our Four Point Action Plan to trigger Uganda’s Leap Forward to a future of opportunity and shared prosperity.

A plan to invest in our people and expand opportunity for every Ugandan;

A plan to re-engineer new sources of growth and create well- paying and decent jobs for our people;

A plan to strengthen our national security, create a new leadership and strengthen our public service; and

A plan to build people-centered regional integration and global partnerships.

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN

For the FDC, human development is more than the mere production of goods and services, or the building of roads, bridges and dams, or even the rise or fall in gross national revenue and per capita income.

It is about creating an environment in which citizens can develop their full potential, lead productive lives in line with their needs, interests and our collective national aspirations.

This is why our plan to invest in our people and expand opportunity focuses on:

building a people-centered and resilient economy built around economic freedom, free enterprise and strong worker and social protection programmes; giving every Ugandan child an opportunity to learn, compete and succeed here and abroad; building a functional, well-resourced public healthcare services system and establishing an effective national healthcare insurance policy that cares for all our citizens; and a systematic plan to accelerate the formation and retention of skilled human capital.

(Economic policy)

The overriding goal of our economic policy is to eradicate extreme poverty and accelerate the attainment of shared prosperity for all Ugandans, with particular emphasis on the 40 per cent of our fellow Ugandans who are at the bottom of our economic strata.

In pursuing this goal, we will guarantee economic freedom as the basic foundation for innovation and economic justice. Through appropriate policies and legislation, we will ensure descent conditions at the work place for Ugandan workers. We undertake to establish a strong social security safety net that protects every citizen.

We have outlined a package of policies that will dramatically improve the investment climate for both nationals and foreign investors. These include strengthening the rule of law, creating a skilled workforce, a strong monetary policy and, a systematic and comprehensive investment programme in transport and energy infrastructure.

I can promise you fellow Ugandans that Government under FDC will not stop at complaining about bureaucratic red tape, as is the habit of the incumbent ruling party. The FDC will promptly and expeditiously fix the problem, reduce the cost of doing business and get businesses growing and expanding.

We believe that strong local governments are the foundations for building local economic and social infrastructure, improving public service delivery, and increasing demand for accountability and good governance.

That is why we will dedicate a significant percentage of the national budget towards local government funding through discretionary funding mechanisms.

(Education policy)

We have outlined an education policy that puts emphasis on the collective responsibility of the state, parents and guardians in ensuring the delivery of quality and rewarding education for our children.

Our education policies and measures will tremendously and systematically transform our Nation’s education system to create the next generation of quality human capital needed to trigger Uganda’s Leap Forward, while giving all Ugandan children an opportunity to fulfill their dreams and contribute to growing our economy and strengthening our democracy.

FDC led Government will adopt policies and measures that give honor to our Nation’s teachers who do a heroic job operating at the frontline of our education system.

In particular, we are committed to establishing a remuneration and compensation system that honors the long hours that our teachers put in, build their pride and reward them for the sacrifice they make in the classroom every day.

(Health policy)

We have outlined a coherent policy agenda to address our health challenges including the commitment to revamp our Nation’s referral system.

We will invest in inspiring our health workers to create a new generation of a health workforce that takes pride in patient satisfaction.

We will realign the health sector governance institutions to remove duplication of effort, improve intra-system accountability and resource local governments to take responsibility for ensuring effective delivery of health services at the local level.

i) Re-engineering new sources of growth and stimulating job creation by implementing game-changing initiatives

We have outlined a plan to re-engineer new sources of growth and stimulate job creation. The policies of the Government under the ruling party have positioned Uganda as a big, unregulated consumer market buying almost everything “made outside” from tooth picks to textiles and cell phones.

Our economy currently operates like a big supermarket run with a kiosk mentality.

In sharp contrast, the FDC-led Government will adopt and pursue game changing policy initiatives to trigger the Leap Forward towards building an economy that is inclusive, a society of entrepreneurs and innovators, and a country that operates at the frontlines of the regional and global economy.

That is why our policies will focus on putting women and the youth at the heart of our economic transformation agenda. Our policies will shift women and youth programming from the current patronage system.

The FDC-led Government will adopt very specific indicators for measuring the success of our youth and women intervention programmes.

Our goal is to see that on an annual basis, there is: Systematic and measurable reduction in youth unemployment; Increase in youth and women owned enterprises through credible and affordable credit schemes among others; and Creation of business incubation programmes for women and youth entrepreneurs.

We have outlined a set of policies and actions to boost export growth by systematically investing in the agricultural sector and protecting local agribusiness from harmful competition in contrast to the firefighting policy approach of the ruling party. This will include fast tracking the establishment of a national bank for agricultural transformation as the epi-center for agricultural finance delivery.

Consistent with our focus on the agriculture sector, we will adopt policies that create more responsibility and accountability in the governance of our natural resources. This will include a transparent and accountable regime for utilization of revenues from oil and other mineral resources.

The policies of the NRMO have suffocated our local governments and defaulted on the grand bargain set out in our Constitution. Power has been systematically grabbed from them, they are chronically underfunded but they are blamed for the failures of the regime.

Our policy package also focuses on strengthening our local government system and making them the epi-centres of local economic development and the effective delivery of public services to Ugandans. .

Our targeted investments in science and technology, the present and future cities programme and a dedicated National Venture and Innovation Fund will help create a new momentum and trigger a new wave of growth that is inclusive and sustainable.

iii) Leadership, National Security and a Commitment to Public Service

Thirdly, we have outlined our policy agenda to strengthen our national security, law and order while building a credible public service leadership that is patriotic, time conscious and confident.

Our policies will build credible leadership in the public service and strengthen our national security, law and order. We will focus on building the institutions of state, securing their autonomy, giving them the confidence to implement national programmes, rewarding them for exemplary performance and continuously holding them accountable for non-performance.

We are conscious of the fact that a full transition of our military into a fully modernized force subordinate to civilian authority is still constrained by an incomplete political transition process.

The FDC-led Government will build on the progress made to date by focusing on strengthening our military in the areas of: information acquisition and processing, guidance, energy and materials, environment, systems and modeling, and prioritizing the welfare of the men and women in uniform.

I had the honor and privilege to serve in our Nation’s military and I salute all our officers and men for their sacrifice in securing our countries borders and executing missions abroad. Our military has educated and well trained officers and men who have the capability to fully professionalize when the right political conditions are in place.

Government under the FDC will create the political environment in which the military and political leadership respect each other, and the military is fully subordinate to civilian authority.

Military service is the highest form of sacrifice a person can offer for his or her country. Abusing the military to serving individual interests is the worst degradation that can be visited on the men and women in uniform.

The military needs to be honored and as such it is our intention to create an environment that honors and gives dignity to the men and women while in service and upon retirement.

Government under the FDC will never tolerate a situation where our retired service men and women have to trek distances to come to our parliament as the only means to secure their welfare and a dignified retirement.

Our defense, security, law and order policy seeks to deal with newly emerging but also ever changing security threats including terrorism and its root causes such as widespread unemployment, poverty and marginalization.

We will establish an independent judicial system that is anchored on the rule of law, justice and the aspirations of our people. A police force that works for our people by ensuring the police is properly resourced and the welfare of police officers is given utmost priority.

Our investments in the judiciary and police seek to align these institutions to play a frontline role in confronting systemic and emerging challenges such as corruption, new forms of crime such as human trafficking, human sacrifice and drug abuse.

iv) Building citizen-centered regional integration and global partnerships

Finally, we will refocus Uganda’s leadership and engagement at the regional and international level to be anchored on national interest and guided by our role as a regional actor. All our foreign missions will be required to report on their work by reporting on our level of influence, how capable we are in penetrating regional and global markets, and how many jobs are created by our actions.

As I conclude, let me point out that going forward, we will have to continuously and systematically confront the culture of handouts that has been created by Mr. Museveni’s regime survival politics. This culture is having a negative impact on the National psyche.

While on the surface, his actions may be seen as acts of magnanimity, underneath, it can only be motivated by evil intentions.

There is a relationship between self-confidence, productivity and innovation. Our people have systematically been broken in spirit and have been turned into beggars in mentality. This dangerous trend has had direct negative consequences on the productivity of our people. We have to roll back this mentality if our policies are to work and our actions to have full meaning.

People need to be given a hand up on the ladder of economic success rather than handouts. Shortcuts and quick fixes can never be an engine for sustained, internally generated economic growth and social progress. It can never create a society that is affluent and at peace with itself.

Indeed the outcomes of what Mr. Museveni has systemically created through crushing the spirit of our people is a deep sense of hopelessness, frustration and steadily boiling anger. This situation needs to be defused before it boils over or explodes.

The tragedy of our current leadership is that they measure progress by the failures of the past rather than the promise of the future. The challenge of our time is not so much about whether we haven’t made progress but that the current regime measures progress in relation to where we are coming from rather than where we should be.

For example, we can appreciate that our revenue collection has increased from US$40 million in 1986 to approximately US$2 billion. What we should be doing is to measure our progress by what we have done with this increased revenues and where we should be if a significant part of it was not stolen or siphoned off through patronage schemes and corruption.

However, within the same period, countries like Singapore, Malaysia and Vietnam have made significant leaps in terms of their GDP. Even Vietnam which had an equally devastating conflict like our country was able to increase its GDP 9 times to reach US$124 billion compared to Uganda which increased its GDP on 5 times to reach US$17 billion over the period 1986-2011.

Because of leadership that is too much focused on our past failures as a measure of success, we are now stuck with two decades of jobless growth.

Massive unemployment have effectively excluded our young people from participating in the economy. Eighty three percent of our young people remain unemployed.

We have spent billions of taxpayers’ money to build a network of health centres but we are unable to staff them and equip or supply them with drugs.

The introduction of UPE, which is billed as a signature policy accomplishment of the NRM, has been mishandled. If government is telling the truth about the enrollment figures, then between 1997 and 2014, at least 16,913,105 children are unaccounted for since they never registered for PLE; completion rates remain dismal and the low transition rates are unacceptable.

An estimated 40 percent of our people remain in conditions of perpetual vulnerability and continuously hang on the cliff facing the reality of falling into poverty at the slightest shock.

The NRM regime has created a plethora of anti-corruptioninstitutions and formulated a multitude of anti-corruption policies and laws but is incapable of implementing them. Institutionalized corruption, stealing and political corruption are standing in the way of our progress.

Fellow Ugandans, you know we deserve better than this.

Today, I am asking of each one of you to break out from the box confining us to the status quo of economic, social and political stagnation.

Like we read in the book of Deuteronomy 1:6-8, for eleven months, the children of Israel had lived at the foot of Mt. Sinai. Eleven months had led them into a state of complacency. They had grown accustomed to their surroundings like many Ugandans have grown accustomed to the ways of the current regime. But of course they had not reached the Promised Land.

And God told them, “You have stayed long enough at this mountain. Break camp and advance. See I have given you this land. Go in and take possession…”

Through this policy agenda, we make a contract with you the people of Uganda. We will offer a brand of leadership that respects our citizens, upholds values of honesty and respect for human dignity, and respect for public office and public property.

Let me assure you that we will be uncompromising in pursuing the policies and actions outlined in this policy agenda. Most importantly, we will continuously hold ourselves accountable to all of you Ugandans as we work together to create the necessary conditions for Uganda’s leap forward.

Fellow countrymen and women, we, like the children of Israel have been led into a state of complacency for close to 30 years. We have stayed on this mountain for too long and we must reject the status quo. Jobless growth; a broken healthcare system; an education system that does not prepare our children to compete regionally and globally; a patronage system that has reduced many of our people to beggars; and a business environment that is biased against those who play fair; and a corruption machinery that is robbing our country to the marrow.

The Forum for Democratic Change is giving you a roadmap to a future of greater promise, opportunity and shared prosperity. We have the will, the resolve, the commitment and the discipline to work for the future that we all deserve.

We have stayed too long at this mountain. This is our time to break camp and advance to the future of promise and shared prosperity.

God bless you.

For God and my Country

dreamstime_m_32349546The anti human trafficking unit has released a report indicating that reported cases of human trafficking reduced last year compared to the previous year in review 2013.

The provisional report that examines the progress of the efforts done by the anti human trafficking Unit based at the ministry of internal affairs shows that 293 cases of human trafficking were registered last year of which 123 are internal trafficking while 170 are across borders.

While releasing the report in Kampala today, the head of the anti human trafficking unit Moses Binoga explains that the reduction may be due to the increased awareness among the public which has reduced their vulnerability.

The report further shows that a total of 13 victims of human trafficking were murdered for human sacrifice of whom 4 adults and 9 children, while out of the 170 people trafficked abroad, only 76 were rescued by end of last year while 94 are still stranded there due to lack of money to buy Visas to return home.

The Uganda Peoples Defence Forces (UPDF) has today hailed the anti terror contribution made by its peacekeepers that perished on December 25, 2014 as they bravely and successfully thwarted an attack by terrorists on an African Union base in Mogadishu.
The Commander Land Forces of the Uganda Peoples’ Defence Forces, Maj Gen David Muhoozi who represented the Chief of Defence Forces, Gen Edward Katumba Wamala, in receiving the remains of the fallen comrades at Entebbe Airport said:
“Our gallant fighters that now regrettably lie before us in silence were part of a very strong team that heroically denied the Al Shabaab access to their intended final target of gaining access to critical Infrastructures at the base. All the five terrorists were eliminated on the spot as three were captured alive.”
It’s however unfortunate that some of the Ugandan comrades including a Lt Col lost their lives in the process.
Maj Gen Muhoozi added:
“They (AMISOM troops) fell as they fearlessly made a huge contribution towards the world’s cause of liberating humanity from terrorism. Uganda, Africa and the world will remember their enormous sacrifices.”
Maj Gen Muhoozi added that there is no greater sacrifice than that of one’s own life for a just cause, like the fallen AMISOM comrades made.
“UPDF appreciatively receives the Condolence message from the Special Representative of the AU Commission Chairperson (SRCC) for Somalia and head of AMISOM, Maman S. Sidikou who also applauded the quick response and bravery of the Ugandan AMISOM troops in quelling the attack.” Gen Muhoozi added.
The UPDF sends its condolences to the bereaved families, AMISOM fraternity and to all Ugandans upon the loss of these dear Heroes.
Uganda will continue to stand with Africa and the rest of the world in the fight against terrorism and the collective efforts to rid Somalia and the entire region of Al shabaab terrorists will not be cowed by such incidences.

When God told Abraham to sign the covenant of the flesh, he circumcised all the male children and he was
circumcised. The message was direct and in plain language. GENESIS 17: 1-27. The agreement was strategically initiated and the male child grew beholding daily his agreement with God at every call of nature throughout his married life.. The covenant of the flesh for a man is with ease to behold with no ill feelings or regrets without medication required afterwards in life.
When God told Moses that the Children of Israel shall not circumcise their girls, the message was given in a spiritual language and bore two warnings. The Israelis parents shall not sexually mutilate their daughters and fathers were commanded not have carnal knowledge (incest) of their daughters making them prostitutes.

Kampala clock towerFgm is a satanic sacrifice for a woman, of secrecy with miseries and constrains of disgrace to behold accompanied by many cases of traumatic child delivery requiring medication. There is no fold of a fore skin in sexual organ of a woman to cut round that hides dirty stuffs that stinks. There is no part of her sexual organ that rots as she grows old from childhood. There are blunt lies of those women anointed by satan to propagate fgm when they claim women that are not cut stinks. Homes ,cities and countries where fgm is not practiced would have been stinking hell if their claim is true which would have been an open truth known by all.

The devil is the father of lies and his accomplished the same. They have given fgm a satanic religious face value with wholesome none existent cleanses which is mockery to wisdom and Word of truth. Today fgm advocates feel their marriages are under attack and endangered with the unfolding truth on falsified physical and spiritual beneficial issues acclaimed in fgm. All they have is to tell epic of lies to keep their husbands mentally caged and remain relevant to their husbands. You cannot teach men enough on issues involving sex and the future for men is settling down to free themselves from inhuman inhibited sexual slavery in fgm.

Fgm affects marital life of a man and reduces him to a sexual scavenger thus trapping him to heartless being .What will happen in near future for women who had no choice in fgm? The devil has his own even among the smart elites in every society that will justify evils under all costs. Fgm is a demonic act associated with existent of parenthood and the devil who has given it a religious backing as a cover up of deception. There are women who have undergone fgm and they hold and tell the bear truth on issues based on fgm. May God Almighty shower them with blessings of fortitude of grace to forbear the deprivations done in fgm.
Girls who face the evil cut become prostitutes on alter of satan sadly without their consent which pollutes the land. The evil cutting is done in honor of the dead.
Leviticus 19:28-29. This type of prostitution cannot be cleansed by marriage. She bought her prostitution with her flesh, bone and blood on alter of Satan while still In her flower age when facing all forces of evils under her parental care. Unless she gets saved (call upon the blood of CHRIST to cleanse her.John3:16-18, Isaiah1:18) she shall go to her grave a prostitute. Thus there were no sexual mutilations among the Israelis women. The Girl child was bought up in divine order leaving the petals and stay of love intact for a beloved wise husband core co-benefits.
She remained a spring shut up and a blessed fountain sealed in divine state. Song of Solomon 4:12, Proverbs 5:18-19.
By instinct man lands at the garden of love and joy to prop it up at Divine state. The Israelis brethren never married from alters of Satan. Israelis women remained lively and delivered goodly children easily a state known to Pharaoh. Exodus 1:1 5-22.
That knowledge on the difference between a circumcised woman and a woman who had not faced the evil cut was exploited by the Hebrew Midwives, Shiphrah and Puah as their reason for saving the men children alive contrary to the King of Egypt instructions for their ultimate death at birth for they were easily delivered for the Israeli women were lively. Pharaoh was aware that the Egyptians women went through Pharaonic circumcision or infibulations and the difficulties they faced in delivering children were known to him thus he agreed with the midwives’ answer.

God has promised our beloved sisters save child delivery in their divine active lively state.. 1Timothy 2: 15 .Girls who have the evil cut cannot pass the threshold of Divine virginity since they sacrificed their fresh, soft bones and to demonic world. Their virginity in marriage is according to satanic standards since they have been defiled with humanity demonic practices. God has never described virginity for a girl child under the knife. All traditional women mutilator die poor since Satan keep them poor to their trade. They are devils’ priests who have hoodwink parent in Church of Christ that they help them in holiness in fgm .The girl child
holds no battle field of faith in her defiled crippled sexual state.

She is sexually excavated, sexually muted and sexually crippled. Girls who face the evil cut are leftovers from the alter of Satan and for a man marrying her is equal to sharing a wife with Satan unless she get saved. Man takes the marriage supper the left
over from the alter of Satan us the dictate of demonic cultures. FGM is a form of partial castration for a womanhood. Man is put in higher marital responsibility which demand from him more attention ,facilitation and chain of deliveries from him. He cannot deliver marital joy to his wife if he remains in his selfish state that demand girls to be sexually crippled. How can a man deliver conjugal satisfaction in Divine state wherein the owner rights for marital joy were denied in fgm through the knife which he cannot reverse.

Man is commanded by GOD to give his wife her conjugal rights and benefits also the woman to the same for its a shared
joy. 1Corithians 1:1-4. FGM is the undeserved and the unnecessary worst evil committed on a girl child by her own parents when her fleshy coals are sacrificed to Satan .How can a sexually mutilated woman deliver joy in Divine state to her husband while sexual joy was denied and removed from her in FGM.
Circumcision in man does not destroy his body integrity and his sexual ability remains unaltered. In Church of Christ, ever where parents force their daughters to face theevil cut, the parents having given the devil the first sacrifice should not be
ashamed to remove the blanket of etiquette and prepare their daughters to play
wives (incest) to their husbands to give the devil a complete sacrifice.
It is not a greater evil than the first sacrifice. FGM is an insult and assault to womanhood. Let them pride
themselves in complete evil. The petals and stay of love are left strewn at
alters of Satan. The sparkles of love cannot be rekindles. In natural world a door is provided for knocking before entering and an aerial is provided for effective communication so is the same for a girl child by nature. FGM is not done for love of the girl child .This is misconception of love. There is no barbaric action done in love. Fgm is done when the sex organ of a girl child is viewed as a source of all immoralities and a center of all evils that engulf a community. It is done as a sacrificial proactive cleansing of a society from immoralities. They view mutilated sex organ of a girl child as clean and holy thus up rifting it to status of satanic reverence. Love does not seek its own benefits. Prostitutes made by parents in FGM are honored. Us no man can miss the mouth even when eating in total darkness, so shall man falter in search of the marital coals removed in sexual mutilation how foolish he is. FGM keeps man out natural way of life in marriage .Song of Solomon 2:6-7.
Parents who perform FGM are sources of families instabilities and of great evils to the land. When their daughters face marital problems originating from the family parliament, they offer themselves for prayers with their daughters before God interceding for stability and peace for their homes. They don’t count themselves as the cause of the marital problems facing their daughters’ marriage life originating from the family parliament for breaking and dismantling the defense and the fences of the marriage court in fgm. The grandmother is in a more canning self defensive ,hypocritical and deceptive state buying time for daughter to bring up girls for her to storm unto them demanding sex mutilation in order for her to shower them with her blessings in her old. In such deceptive manner unfortunately the cycle of demonic fgm repeats itself again. Do they ever learn anything destructive in fgm or they are spiritually blind folded? When the wife at the family parliament lose esteemed value to her husband all that pertain to the family has no value to him and this is the widest gate for the man that leads to lack of burden of responsibility for the family that opens the highway of family destruction by the devil.
FGM lay social foundations for unstable marital live. Parents are highly
entrenched in prostitution with their girl child. When in demonic world parents say fgm makes a girl child clean but God says she defiled and made a prostitute. Ironically these parents are
active in the Church who shoulder burdens for the church but with continuous
unresolved marital problems a dilemma to the clergy. They are workers of
Satan who have camouflaged as believers in the Church of Christ. How do they
differ from magicians and witches? FGM is the parental satanic sexual sacrifice , assault, insult and abuse to a girl child sexual integrity. They pollute the land in prostitution and
the land becomes full of all evils. How can a father be obsessed with the
sexual organ of his daughter as a bearer of holiness in mutilated state? It
is hypocritical for him to be in a place where GOD is worshiped. Why
should parents be obsessed to place the family uprightness and the
country holiness in the mutilated sex organ of their girl child? After FGM is done ,the girl child is highly esteemed and it is a demonic cover up of the plight of evils done.
Can a girl child with stolen childhood and womanhood find love in her parents in subjecting her to unjust FGM?. It all boils down to social rottenness that require Divine spiritual intervention. Clergy ought teach and preach the truth and hold parents accountable to irresponsible injustice committed against their daughter in FGM. It is awkward that laws are enacted to
stop parents from performing FGM. Men and women of upright minds come together to stop atrocities done to a
girls child by her very own parents. Un issue parents would have abandoned on learning the suffering girls go through in fgm and after fgm. Instead of her finding parental love and care, she is ushered into brutality against her very womanhood. FGM has been used as an instrument of disciplined measure against women by sexually crippling them against perceived climes they have never committed. If FGM install holiness in women as paramount foundation for a holy life before
marriage and in marriage, then there would never be any divorce in marriages where
women have undergone FGM. This notion stipulate the mutilated sex organ of a
woman as centre of holiness and un institution of worship since in it mutilated state chastity can be delivered. It would mean men loosing self holiness in
God and having secondary holiness in God received from mutilated sex organ of a
woman there by making the sex of a woman a centre of worship. This is demonic
way of thinking and practice in life. FGM has zero benefit for a man and a woman. FGM suppresses the libido for which can never be regained in marriage .She is not adventurous in sexual relationship and the man takes the marriage supper under dark rules set to hind her shortcoming in dreaded love affairs. She cannot be Eve in garden of Eden for the man. The husband remain an instrument of torture in her married life. FGM increases incidences of cesarean and fistula complications at birth. Marital freedom is denied .It makes a woman a land without fence and a well without a cover. FGM opens without mercy hell on earth for a girl child which is a wakeup call for all brave and wise men to fight FGM.. FGM belittle wisdom. It is a barbaric culture imposed on womanhood by parents and the society at large .Song of Solomon 4:12
It is evident FGM put God at faults for
providing a girl child with an active sexual organ. They view the active sexual organ of
a girl child in its Divine active state as evil and a source of immorality. Redemption and salvation for
themselves is crafted by sexually crippling the girl child in FGM whereby they
sacrifice the girl child sexual organ to Satan in the name of morality for God.
Leviticus 19:28-29. By uplifting the sexual organ of a girl child as pillar of
morality in defiled mutilated state shift the blame game to the sexual organ of
a girl child as a source of immorality in a community hence all brutalities
direct against the girl child in all forms of FGM. The blame game is directed
against God for providing her with un active sexual organ thus they chop her sexual organ to their taste to make her a sexual mute. She live with stolen childhood and womanhood the lest of her lifetime.
This defeat any sense of humanity in them. It is cruelty on a girl child at
alter of family and community social holiness from demonic world.
FGM was authored in Egypt by Pharaoh as Satanic sacrifice to increase pain and wailing in child birth as a Satanic
sacrifice. The fleshy sexual coals are
excavated leaving her frigid and rocky thus denying her for live time Divine
marital gift which she requires in
marriage for a lively marital relationship with her husband. How stupid a man
may be, by instinct a man will falter in search of the fleshy coals
removed in FMG thus leaving him at moral loose for unfulfilled marital
achievement . The fleshy coals are provided for the benefit of their marriage life. 1Corithians7: 9. The
fleshy coals helps a woman in marriage to lock in emotionally with her husband
in a cordial marital relationship. Some parents send their daughters far away to close relatives for retrogressive FGM as a cover up without the girl child knowledge of the adverse side effects on her body and spirit. Today granddaughters are running away from grandparents and aunts since they hold the mutilating blades of tear and terror for their bodies and wise parents are shielding their daughters from them. This they call breakdown of extended families ties which brethren in Christ are ready to uphold for their faith in God and for the spiritual and physical dignity of their daughters. The shedding of the blood and flesh of their daughters in satanic sacrifice in fgm they cannot allow it us uniting force for the extended families unity. Their faith in Christ breaks the yoke of satan.
It is quite evident parents are under cultural moral slavery siege and ready to sacrifice
their daughters to FGM at demonic alter of cultures for community social
acceptance but they are an eye sore before God for performing this type of prostitution . FGM is more of rottenness of mans’ morals as the head of the family. How would parents commit their daughters to FGM so us someone
can have food for the mouth calling it their trade of life? How could someone
say it was done in honor of religion where God is mentioned and the clergy
exist? How will girls ever be compensated after the evil trade of forced FGM is abandoned while their mutilated sexes organs remain and the wounded soul and spirit cry to God Almighty. Many parents
are still stuck in wilderness of demonic cultures though in institutions of
Godly worship. Even from time of old women can perform all types of evils counting on their husbands’ support. Israelis women in the Bible told Jeremiah the Prophet that the sacrifices they offered to queen of heaven they did so with the support and knowledge of their husbands. Jeremiah 44:19 Even today women who force their daughters to undergo FGM count on their husbands full support. They confirm their husbands are part of Satanic sacrifice performed on their daughters in FGM when they disregard Godly advice and truth concerning fgm. It is the time parental love and care are nonexistent as the girl child is raised on alter of Satan for fgm for demonic morality chastity with full parental honor and the pleas by young girls for justice fall to deaf ears. The coveted cultural benefits and rights in FGM are left with the parents as the girl child is merchandized at the altar of Satan leaving her empty handed bearing all adverse severe effects and defects in her body and spirit for a life time. For how long will parents hold this form of prostitution dear to their bosom for earthly respect ,honor and social acceptance? Is it that before God our beloved parents are not aware they are in prostitution with their daughters in fgm or they are stiff necked? The earth is drenched in pollution with the innocent blood of young girls and the seed of terror of evils is planted and established. Who will pull out parents stuck in the wilderness of demonic cultures with love and care? FGM is in the bosoms of parents and the community at large. It all boils down to communities social rottenness. The battle
fields of double faiths range in their hearts and they fail terribly to test of
faith in God.
GOD is not a respecter of persons and you cannot modify evils committed by parents to less evils to look upright. No form of FGM is acceptable . To think you can subject girls to less invasive form of FGM is
spiritually not acceptable . Where Men
circumcision involves removal of a fold of the fore skin, FGM involves massive dense muscles with high concentration
of sensitive net work of nerves and soft which leaves a woman sexually crippled out phase with man.
bone removal. Her bone is left in the air to dry like dead wood. This is not circumcision. It is Sexual excavation. Circumcision involves cutting round a fore skin in man. Which man would ever leave part of his bone cut to dry in the air like dead wood? After FGM there are no bows left for man to hold. Song of Solomon 7:8 .NO blood should be spilled in FGM. Leviticus 19:28-29. God purposed a woman to enjoy sex in marriage. No human being should play God to her life.
Song of Solomon 2:2-5. Sexual joy is Divine given to her and parents have no rights in sexually crippling her in FGM. Do not give parents a soft landing ground in their evils adventures by making them acceptable social criminals. The youths of today face great moral social battle against FGM which is a must win goal since they are blessed and enlightened with abundant interactive active knowledge concerning ills of FGM. They must not allow themselves to be engulfed in a cocoon of suffering.
FGM is a satanic faith moral issue hedged on cultural . It is the deadly beastly yoke of Satan on womanhood. Satan activities have camouflaged themselves as Godly believers among believers telling them they assist them in holiness in FGM. FGM is the annual mass sacrifice done by parents to Satan for his glorification. In demonic world they claim FGM make a girl child clean but God says she defiled and made a prostitute sadly without her consent. Can parents take heed to Godly advice and do away with generation to generation prostitution in fgm? If we have to stop FGM it cannot be based only on negative side effects inherited by FGM. Since it is a faith issue one can decide to live bearing all sufferings that come with FGM. It is known
even clinically trained personnel perform FGM with full background firsthand knowledge of all
sufferings and shortcoming associated with FGM. They are well paid by those who hunger and thirst to satisfy they cultural based faith attachment in FGM even contrary to moral standards of Godly believers. When FGM is involved, God is of secondary important to them. It is the time Satan is Supreme in their lives when all demonic forces raise against the girl child. The clergy have more work to do in preaching having to bring parents and young men on board to the full knowledge
of the Word of God. Young men know God told Moses in Spiritual language that FGM is a Satanic sacrifice for non
believers hidden and preserved in parenthood for acceptance. Leviticus 19:28-29. Young men if you are presented with a
virgin sexually mutilated without the sparkle of love and a virgin who has her divine splendor of her sex
organ intact, who would you choose a wife having stood the test of faith in
Godly manner? The clergy cannot live as though no Satanic sacrifices are performed on the girl child in FGM. In FGM the marriage bed is defiled .Young men have full reality faith in Godly that you share a wife with Satan in FGM.
You cannot serve God and demons together. The choose is in your heart. Choose
wisely.
In Church of Christ, let fathers not exercise the terror of silence which have allowed satan to raid and rain terror on young girls in fgm. Let fathers stand up for the divine rights of their daughters in marriage. Parents owe their sons in laws
lifetime gratitude for agreeing to marry their daughters whom they sexually
assaulted and sexually crippled. God has never asked parents to sexually
cripple their daughters so as to remain virgins and holly. Is holiness attained
by sexually crippling a girl child acceptable to God’s purposes for her live
destiny entity? No. There is holiness that pertains to children of God. Fgm is direct assault and insult to her real womanhood.
The sex organ of a girl child cannot be manipulated through sexual mutilations
as a gate way for man to heaven. Parents owe their daughters a life time
apology for their inhuman acts which robbed them their divine marital gifts.
Parents who force their daughters to undergo FGM exercise the most Dignified
Unreserved Beastly Cultural Atrocities on the girl
child with man child at the receiving end as beneficially.FGM remain the most horrible evil coveted by some parents with full support of some grandparents and aunts. Proverbs14:1-2. A foolish woman destroys
her own house with her own hands. Let parents face the truth and know they have evil thoughts against their girl child in FGM and they are terribly wrong .In the spirit world parents spy their daughters and are envious of their marital bed thus they raid the marriage court in fgm acts. They view their daughters us sexually wild and immoral children who have to be tamed to gain moral control over their bodies in fgm where God has never subjected mankind holiness under the Knife. But who is weak? Men or women. Is the immorality one sided based on women among themselves only? Is the girl child sexually immoral to herself? Who is fooling who? Is the sexual organ of a girls child the pillar of immorality and evils? FGM is the highest unjust sacrifice involving blood ,flesh and bone to Satan which tie parents more to demonic world. Can men cut their penis heads to be near equal with women who have lost their clitoris in fgm? In FGM, parents are a curse to a nation. In fgm parents craft and draw holiness for themselves and for the whole family together with the community from fgm thus they cleanse and protect themselves from immoralities in the blood of their daughters clothed in religious attires. The burden of family and the community holiness is pegged and delivered from the mutilated sex organ of a girl child. It is a demonic way of life. This pertain more to human sacrifice and worship to satan than many would like not to believe they are submerged in demonic practices.
It is hypocritical and mockery for parents in Church of Christ to spend their early marriage life in double standards life to perpetuate FGM and live in their twilight years as devoted loving caring parents having soiled their hands with the blood of their daughters in a well intended time staged managed shedding of
blood and flesh of their daughters in FGM in early marriage life as she wade through the jungle of life for demonic chastity sacrifice acceptance . Parents pride themselves in FGM for tearing down the defense and fences of the marriage court a sacrifice to Satan. They do not pride and delight themselves in God. But GOD can never be mocked. Some men force their daughters to undergo FGM under their mothers’ pressure forgetting there are no curses for those in Christ Jesus. Galatians3:10-14, Proverb26:1-2. It is quite evident parents are under cultural moral slavery siege
and ready to sacrifice their daughters to FGM at alter of demonic
cultures for community social acceptance.FGM is the historical prostitution and plunder of womanhood bound in cultural respect and honor. Evil committed by parents cannot be justified by existent of time done or by existent of once faith to do it.
Can a man kneel before God and support FGM. It is awkward to hear men say what is good for a
woman and not say what God say is good for a woman and him. It seems some
men want to craft a way of life from the sex organ of women for themselves in name of purity for God. When God told
Moses that the Israelis fathers shall not subject their daughters to FGM in
honor of the dead or have sex with them, He did not leave any form of FGM
for a girl child. To suggest there can be mild form of FGM is not acceptable
before God. Leviticus 19:28-29. FGM is the annual mass satanic sacrifice done by parents. Once the blood of a girl child is shed in FGM the land is polluted and the country becomes full of all evils. If men have no respect for
the complex delicate sex organ which is the sanctuary of marriage which their long for and deliver them to this world, how will they have mercy for one another even where they have common faith?
When the earth is fully polluted in FGM, at a point in
life ,men turn the country a slaughter house for one another and the
communities at large. When the demonic world unleash calamities and atrocities on the community, images of suffering that draw waves of emotions and floods of tears are seen The seed of all evils is planted and watered by parents.FGM usher cerebration after the garden of love and joy defense and fences are scrapped out. Men can overturn the suffering girls go through in FGM over night when they are not habitually cheated on issues concerning FGM. They will take a firm stand knowing girls atrocities in FGM resulting in a flood gate of life of sufferings is not their joy and benefit by refusing sharing wives with Satan in FGM which rob her the coals of love. Men must understand and know that FGM is a respected high order of satanic prostitution done by parents with honor when coals of love are sacrificed to Satan. No trade can exist without customers. When men have true caring love and holy concern for our beloved sisters, Satanic parental generations prostitution sacrifices in FGM will be an issue in the forgotten past. Men ought to know and understand that in FGM the devil has invaded the sanctuary of marriage and defiled the fountain. Let your fountain be blessed, cushy and the King of marriage is fully anointed. Let not your fountain be a fountain of terror and horror. Youth should enter marriage with their full bodies integrity intact as virgins of the Lord,1 Corinthians7:36. Which man would not like to have a happy and glorious wife beside him bound together in perfect true love? That bundle cannot be separated. Provebrs5:18-19. Which wise man would prefer a bride prepared for him on hell on earth and sexually crippled in fgm wholly blended with religion by satan ? Men bear the automate change over. Amen. Girls are prepared for them in fgm for marriage .They are the deciding factor which can never be ignored with power to free our sisters from grip of satan in fgm. If men give our dear sisters the loving caring right hand of help in saying no to fgm and fathers lead in saying no to fgm without leaving mothers to have their ways like Eve in the garden of Aden then fgm is doomed forever.
How would parents commit their daughters to FGM so us someone can have food for the mouth calling it
their trade of life? How could someone say it was done in honor of religion
where God is mentioned and the clergy exist? How will ever be girls
compensated who are forced to FGM in their flower age after abandoning
the evil trade? Parents and the clergy should know that the mutilated
injured girls remain and the wounded souls and spirit cry to Almighty God. Many
parents are still stuck in wilderness of demonic cultures though in
institutions of Godly worship. Who will pull out parents stuck in the
wilderness of demonic cultures with love and care? FGM is in the bosoms
of parents and the community at large. It all boils down to communities social
rottenness. The battle fields of double faiths range in their hearts and they
fail terribly to test of faith in God. Can parents be so cruel and evil minded to perform FGM in name of morality in GOD? FGM is the past generations form of prostitution on womanhood with respect , honor and rewards. Let us have fathers who can stand for God with their families when the lest rebel against God. Joshua 24:14-15 .
The greatest force behind FGM are fathers and young men. It is heart
breaking to hear women say if it were not of demands by fathers and young
men behind the sin they will not do it. In FGM parents break the spiritual and physical integrity well being of their daughters. It is all known some men dare not speak against FGM for it propel
them to political powers. The parents and the whole families political votes are dear to
them thus they center themselves us champion of FGM as a cultural heritage. Their political powers
are fueled by blood and flesh of young girls thus weakening laws passed to ban
FGM. The young girls fate hang out of balance since she cannot count on rescue
even from her dear brothers. Her fate is sealed in dying hope by those who thirst and hunger for her
flesh and blood for the injustice of the beloved parents is awful cruel. It is in the hour of need a father turns a cold shoulder to his girl child and commit her to Satan in fgm. The girl child lives with unresolved burning self reserved resentments against her parents but all they see is well to their eyes. The dark embarrassing day of losing her womanhood in FGM remains vivid to her mind. Parents will have their daughters physically but emotionally detached from them in their old age a dilemma and a surprise to them. Their silent heart acre of lack of mutual trust between their daughters will go down to their old age. A great social rift is emerging among the youth and old generation based on increased abundant interactive active knowledge on whole issues based on FGM with youth calling for social justice. Youths are on a race against time whether to subject their marriages to generations prostitution in FGM. Parents can socially lose their children in their old age with phenomenal of being neglected by their children becoming more apparent. FGM condemns a girl child to a life time of sexual slavery. This is the misery bestowed upon her by her parents in honor of the dead which they hold dear to their hearts.
Parents pride themselves in FGM since they receive their communities social
recognitions and acceptance at a price of permanently sexually deforming
their girls in FGM which they can view in a mirror. Parents are in Sodom of their own even in places of
worship.
Laws to ban FGM may not eliminate FGM since it can be done clinically
at home. Parents require deliverance of their souls and spirit to God.
In their liberated hearts they will not suffer any loose for abandoning FGM
for their trust in God is paramount. God Himself told Moses that the Israelis
fathers shall not subject their daughters to FGM in honor of the dead or
have sex with them making them prostitutes. Leviticus 19:28-29. FGM is a
Satanic sacrifice involving blood, soft bone and flesh and parents are more bonded to
demonic world by sacrificing their girl child in FGM . The seed of evils is planted, watered and guarded by parents in joy. Let all Children of Abraham by faith face the full reality of the demands in their faith in God.
God bless you all united against this demonic cultural practice called FGM, a hard nut to crack preserved and hidden in parenthood for acceptance. It is the time the promises in fgm die out and the demonic world open its’ gates wide for the girl child and closes its’ gates behind her back as she leaves the alter of Satan empty handed for the rest of her life time. Can the young men and girls muscle enough will power and do away with FGM forced down their lives by the old generation? Yes, they can since they are strong with an open mind. They have the divine provision of a happy marriage within their reach. Their marriage belong to them and not to their parents. Your obedience stays within the practices of Godly confined boundaries. God says you are strong and you can overcome the wicked one. 1 john2:14. We must hold the Word of God within its content and contest lest or we be found to have contempt for the Word of God.
In Church of Christ, men should stop counting their up hold to
spiritual holiness in reverence to a defiled sexually mutilated sex organ of a
woman. Some men say when women are sexually crippled, men and women remain
faithful but to who? Which men are sexually crippled for women to remain holy?
Is the sexual organ of a woman an institution of worship for men? GOD IS HOLLY.
Men shouldn’t have defiled faith in God based on crippled sexual organ of a
woman. Men should love God with a pure heart. The sexual organ of a woman is
not a stay to his faith in his God. Should a man share a wife with the
devil? FGM is ill tagged as a benefit to a man child by those who
perpetuate this demonic sacrifice. Men who view their holiness in God through the mutilated sexual organ of a woman put their faith in God to demonic practices. FGM is a Satanic sacrifice imposed on w
