Sisimuka Uganda CEO, Frank Gashumba has on Monday put his frustration into words and has rebuked Ugandans who turn a deaf ear towards issues he says are of national concern.

Through a Facebook live video, the father of two has also criticized Christians he believers are wasting money on false pastors.

“I wonder, you give sacks of money to fraud Pastors who call themselves prophets but we, who genuinely serve Uganda, you are not willing to donate to us.” Gashumba said.

Whosoever bewitched Uganda is a witch, Gashumba emphasized.

This video had by press time reached over 11,000 viewer with many endorsing his remarks including response against the forthcoming Christian event that will see a Church leader honored.

“There is a prophet who has organized prayers, but one has to pay Ush 750,000 so as to secure a seat at the high table. And they are going to pay. He said one of those days that he was with God in heaven. My God!” Gashumba said.

“If prayers were working, Uganda would be like Hong-Kong, Singapore or Japan… Don’t waste your time, do two things, wake up every morning, say a prayer then go and hustle, there is no pastor that performs miracles. The person that performs miracles is God.” He stated.

“Someone says he can heal, even the lame. Mulago has a facility full of lame people. Why don’t these pastors go very early to Mulago and [heal] the lame that were crippled before…The things God successfully gave Museveni are four; it is in his regime that Ugandans have most watched score matches…The second group is in sports betting, the other in bodaboda and the other group sleeps in Church.” Gashumba asserted.

He also strongly condemned the ministry of health which through Uganda Cancer Institute failed to use Shs158m and returned it to the Consolidated Fund.

“Someone must do a DNA on Africans, we have a problem.” He said.

In his statement to UG Christian News, Mr Ssenyonjo Micheal who recently shared his opinion with this website through an article titled: “Honoring God’s men is honoring God and His work” has said one of the things many people overlook is the sovereignty of God.

“I know there are vital issues Gashumba sought to address and yes, we have heard them. Some are great points. But my prayer is that his ambitions should not blind him from the reality of God’s move in Uganda today – if all he sees generally are false prophets every where fleecing money, then he is missing out on the major events. God is doing something and if he wants to know what it is, he will have tune his ears to God.”

“Matthew 11:25 says; At that time Jesus declared, “I praise You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because You have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. Uganda is not out of Control for God. We are not worried and when we stay awake all night in prayer, it is because we know that it takes more that mere talk to deliver a nation. God unveils mysteries.

“As many continue to call the country bewitched, we are persuaded that “there is no divination against Jacob, no evil omens against Israel” (Numbers 23:23). I can’t put faith, God’s word out of context for it is by it that I live.” Mr Ssenyonjo said.
