The Bishop of Soroti Catholic Diocese, Bishop Joseph Eciru Oliach, has urged the people of Teso to keep former Speaker of Parliament, Annet Anita Among in prayer during this difficult time.
Bishop Eciru made the call while addressing hundreds of Christians at Uganda Martyrs Catholic Parish in Kachumbala, Bukedea District.
This year marked the first time the celebration was held in dioceses due to the Ebola outbreak in the country.
Annet Anita Among, who has been the Women Member of Parliament for Bukedea District since 2016, is currently facing scrutiny as investigations into her financial dealings and alleged corruption during her tenure as head of the 11th Parliament.
Bishop Eciru emphasizes the importance of prayer, urges Christians to abandon earthly distractions and prepare their souls for heaven.
David Beecham Okwere, the Member of Parliament for Bukedea County, reveals that some leaders from Teso plan to meet President Museveni regarding Annet Anita Among.
Okwere confirms that the delegation is likely to be led by the Emorimor Paul Sande Emolot and Bishop Eciru, as well as bishops from other churches across the Teso.
He encouraged the community to remain calm as they prepare to engage with President Museveni, assuring them that everything will be well with their sister, Annet Anita Among.
