The Church is preparing to be promoted to Parish level with a mission to save Christians from trekking the long journeys in search of Priestly services from Kakore Rugambwa Parish in Hamurwa Town Council.
Ms. Katabazi who is also the wife of Deputy Director General ISO Col Emmy Katabazi cautioned her supporters against engaging in acts of violence, insisting that violence is a tactic for losers.
Her statements came after a number of her supporters have reportedly been attacked and physically assaulted by people believed to be political agents of the incumbent Rubanda District Woman Mp Prossy Akampurira.
“I’m sure that we have and we are going to have more support enough to win the coming election, so do not drift away from our original plan,” Ms. Katabazi said.
She further asked her supporters to avoid yielding to provocation from rival camps.
“Let those who want to use violence use it, but do not react. If they abuse you, do not abuse them back. I believe God’s favor is upon me, and he will surely bring me the victory to represent the people of Rubanda District in Parliament” she added.

Ms. Katabazi also cautioned the electorate against selling their votes to the highest bidder, adding that it causes regrets since it usually results in incompetent leadership. She said that those who buy their way into parliament end up serving their own interests for the five years they spend in office, leaving little or no impact on the people they represent.
