BUGANDA Kingdom have hailed the Catholic Church for its attempts in defending the rights of the oppressed, the voiceless and marginalised people, composes Josephine Maseruka.

Deputy Katikkiro Emmanuel Ssendaula also commended the house base the Catholic bishops had taken on the disputatious Land (Amendment) Bill.

During the Martyrs Day jubilations at the Namugongo shrine on June 3, the president of the Catholic bishops conference, Bob Mathias Ssekamanya, said the Church did not believe that the Bill would heal the rampant evictions.

"The Catholic Church have always been our strong ally, especially in substances that oppress people. We are very happy with Bishop Ssekamanya's pronouncements," said Ssendaula.

He was last hebdomad congratulating the eight innovator priests of St. Mbaaga Major Seminary during their Silver jubilee jubilations in Ggaba, a metropolis suburb.

The priests were ordained in 1983. The Auxiliary Bishop of Kampala, Saint Christopher Kakooza, is among them.
