NATIONAL Prayer Breakfast: President Yoweri Kaguta Museveni has asked the leaders at all levels in Uganda to respect the mandate given to them by Ugandans by not involving themselves in corruption among other bad practices.
“I have never received a bribe from anyone and I therefore call upon all the leaders at all levels in Uganda to follow that good example.” Museveni said, in part of his Speech.
“I have for the past 60 years seen people destroy miss out on opportunities because of abusing trust. If you have been trusted in small things you could also be trusted in big things”.
In his address, President Yoweri Museveni has urged leaders not to be tempted “to abuse the trust given to you by God”.
“Do not be corrupt. Do not agree to take a bribe. I have never taken or accepted a bribe from anyone,” he says.
“You are given a little trust, you abuse it. How then will you gain bigger trust from God?
“For several years, I have been watching how people misuse their chances.”
Reiterating what American Pastor Johnny Enlow had preached, Museveni urges people to be poor in spirit, be meek and do justice to other people.
“Be humble,” he says. “Do no mock God.”
He also calls on Enlow to document his preaching in form of a book “to help our people grasp the message”.
