Bishop Lino Wanok from the Lira Diocese urged people to prioritize peace and personal dignity as Uganda enters a sensitive political season. He connected the Christmas message to current civic duties, stating the holiday calls for moral reflection and responsible action from citizens. The Bishop pointed to biblical examples, mentioning Joseph's righteousness and Mary's faithful courage as models for modern behavior.

He argued that real peace starts internally, with personal morality guiding public life. Wanok warned against using power improperly or exploiting vulnerable groups like the poor and young people. He told communities to avoid violence and manipulation, especially during the election period, and to protect their own conscience from hatred and false information.

The Bishop also stressed that family homes and local parishes should stay as zones for respectful conversation. He reiterated the Church's neutral stance, saying it must avoid partisan politics while focusing on prayer and community healing through its charitable arms.
