Pastors under their umbrella association “Port Bell Pastors’
Fellowship” have petitioned parliament this morning calling for its
immediate re-consideration of the Anti Homosexuality Act which was
recently nullified by the constitutional court on 1st August on
grounds that it was passed without quorum.
The pastors with their followers have said that this law is quickly
needed to address moral decadence which is at its increase in Uganda
due to western influences.
Lamanzaani Mukisa the chairman of Port Bell Pastors’ Fellowship says
that Uganda has needs to preserve its cultures and traditions which
are mainly based on the promotion God’s Will rather than satanic
deeds.
Lamanzaani Mukisa has also called upon president Museveni to stand his
ground regarding the Anti-Homosexuality Law and not to take double
stands if he wants to win popular support from Ugandans.
In the same way, Ronald Balimwezo Nsubuga of Nakawa has attacked
members of parliament for not taking the matter seriously which made
them not raise the required quorum during the passing of this law.
Balimwezo Nsubuga has threatened that members who always absent
themselves from parliament will lose their seats come 2016 because
they do not know they are incompetent.

In the same line George Oduki their spokes person wants this law to be
immediately re-tabled and passed in a way to protect children, further
calling upon all concerned parties to join this campaign for the
enactment of this law.

Meanwhile while receiving their petition, the speaker of parliament
Rebecca Alitwala Kadaga has said that their matter will be considered
being that there is an going process of collecting signatures by
members of parliament lead by the Kawempe South mp Latif Ssebaggala to
re-table this law.
