Museveni just told Uganda's Christian community they need to stop relying on prayers alone and start hustling actual businesses to pull their families out of broke territory. Vice President Jessica Alupo delivered the message at the Busoga Diocese bishop installation, where the president pointed out that even Jesus worked as a carpenter while doing his ministry thing, and Paul made tents to fund his travels.
The government says about 43 percent of Ugandan households survive outside the cash economy through subsistence farming that feeds people but generates zero income for basics like medicine or school fees. Museveni pushed believers to learn practical skills and tap into infrastructure improvements like roads and electricity that the administration had already built out.
The whole speech happened while Rev. Canon Prof. Grace Lubaale got installed as the fourth bishop at Kyabazinga Stadium with a bunch of religious leaders and politicians watching.
