The case of Sheikh Umar, widely known as “Omulombi w’edduwa”, has begun to be heard. His sister-in-law has testified about his sexual harassment of her daughter. Sheikh Kassim Umar Muwonge Kamoga, known as Seeka Umar of Nansana, has had testimony given against him in a case of attempting to defile a 13-year-old girl (name withheld). He allegedly took the child from her parents and sexually harassed her in an abusive manner. He is appearing before Judge Alice Komuhangi Khaukha of the High Court’s International Crimes Division. Led by State Prosecutor George Bigirwa, Cissy Naluwooza, 39, Seeka Umar’s sister-in-law and a resident of Kiboga, is the mother of the alleged victim. In a calm but visibly pained voice, she told the judge everything that happened. Naluwooza told the judge that all she narrated was told to her by her daughter, since she was not present at the time she had gone to Kalangala to work after separating from her husband. She has two children with him, including th...

Tonight we bury the drought”: Arsenal fans feast as 22 years of hurt end

-
Image
For 22 years, Arsenal fans in Uganda had only seen the Premier League trophy on TV. On Sunday night, they finally touched the dream. Supporters across Kampala spilled into the streets after Arsenal clinched the league title, their first since 2004. The celebrations peaked at Ce’lavile Bar in Kabuusu, where Arsenal Uganda chairman Patrick Mbaziira hosted a raucous victory party. Lubaga Mayor Zacky Mawula Mberaze, Samuel Muyizi, and hundreds of red-clad fans joined the feast. Cows, goats, and chickens were slaughtered. Grills smoked, drinks flowed, and speakers shook as fans danced until their legs gave out. Ululations pierced the night. Throats went hoarse. For once, the songs weren’t about “next season.” “We waited 22 years,” Mbaziira said, raising a toast. “We’ve buried goats for funerals. Tonight, we bury the drought.” From 2004’s “Invincibles” to 2026’s champions, a generation of Ugandan fans had grown up taunted by rivals. That ended this weekend.

Betrayed abroad; ‘he bought Church land with my sweat’ how a ‘KADAAMA’ lost UGX 10.7M to the Pastor she trusted.

-
Image
Pr. Benson Matovu  BY PETER SSUUNA A pastor wept openly in court after being found guilty of defrauding a former congregant of UGX 10.7 million money she sent home from Saudi Arabia to buy land, only to return and find nothing. Benson Matovu, lead pastor of Ambassadors of Life Church International in Matugga, Mabanda, broke down at Nateete Lubaga Court in Mengo as Magistrate Adams Byarugaba convicted him of obtaining money by false pretenses. The complainant, 32-year-old Cossey Namutebi of Kanyanya, told court she entrusted the pastor with over UGX 40 million while working as a domestic worker in Saudi Arabia between 2021 and 2024. She said she trusted him because he was her spiritual leader. “I was sending him money to buy me land so I could build a small house when I returned,” Namutebi testified. “When I came back, he had no land to show me. When I asked for my money back, there was nothing.” Instead, court heard, Pastor Matovu used the funds to purchase land for his c...

FAITH, FAMILY, AND LEGACY: HUNDREDS GATHER AT VICTORY CHURCH TO MOURN PASTOR SSERWADDA’S FATHER

-
Image
By PETER SSUUNA Various people have come forward to praise the legacy of the father of Victory Church Ndeeba pastor Joseph Sserwadda, the late elder who passed away at age 99. During the memorial service held at Dr. Sserwadda’s Church in Ndeeba, former Kimaanya-Kabonera Member of Parliament Pr. Dr. Abed Bwanika, who represented the people of Masaka, said Pr. Sserwadda served them well and is one of the people who put Masaka on the map. A person who benefits society receives training from many places like school, religion, and family which he said is the most important. He urged the Government to reduce the time children spend at school so they can return home and be taught by their parents in order to have people of value. He praised the work that the late Ssaalongo Emmanuel Musigire did in Pastor Sserwadda’s life and called on parents to always give their children time and mentor them in life skills. He said a person doesn’t need school alone but also home training, adding t...

Families Petition Museveni Over Banda Land Dispute With Kyambogo University.

-
Image
By PETER SSUUNA Some of the family members who claim they were given land in Banda by Ssekabaka Muteesa II have appealed to President Museveni to help them regain ownership of their land, which they say was taken from them by Kyambogo University. Led by Fahad Mugume, Keren Tusiima, and Boniface Kasolo, they allege that Kyambogo University grabbed part of their land using security agencies including the Police and the army. It is claimed that they acquired the land on August 20, 1954, when Prince George William Mawanda wrote on behalf of Muteesa II while he was in exile, giving it to them because they were his friends. He gave 100 acres to Prince Paulo Kisawuzi Wavamunno, his blood brother Joseph Kyegalika, and Mubiru Ezekiel, located in Kireka Kyaddondo on FC17747 block 137 Plot; 37 in Buganda. They were ordered to pay a tribute of Shs 650 to the Kabaka on receipt 037, page 1582. Mugume, a grandson of Joseph Nguliya Kyegalika, says his grandfather and those mentioned above obta...
