Ugandan clergy call for restraint ahead of 2021 polls
JOHN SEMAKULA
Religious leaders in Uganda have asked the government and the civil society to exercise restraint as a crackdown on civil liberties gathers momentum ahead of the 2021 general election.
The Anglican Bishop of Mukono Diocese, the Rt Rev James William Sebaggala, told
Sight officials in government as well as those in civil society must take responsibility for every decision they make to put an end to the ongoing crackdown on civil society organisations.
