In Sheema
Sheema Christians who are seeking for the proposed Central Ankole Diocese (CAD) have come out to deny the alleged debt that they owe to West Ankole diocese.
According to Zadock Amanyisa the West Ankole diocese spokes person, before Sheema district is granted a diocese (CAD) they have applied for, they should first pay the loan of over 1 billion Ug shs which they owe to West Ankole diocese.
Zadock noted that this alleged loan come up at the time when some Sheema district Christian leaders were fighting against former West Ankole diocese Bishop Rt Rev emeritus Katoneene Yona and Sheema churches refused to pay the required tithe to the diocese.
Hon Katwiremu Yorokamu Bategana former MP Sheema South constituency, the chairperson for all CAD preparations in a phone interview told www.mknewslink.com that as Sheema Protestants they don’t owe any loan to West Ankole diocese.
He added that the money they allege is a loan was used during the time of Bishop Katoneene to build more churches in Sheema , construct houses of their priests plus paying their priests.
When Hon Katwiremu was asked about the conflicts within CAD organizing members, he said that before he gives out that information, the media should first pay him.
However recently in an interview, Dr Mesearch Katusiime one of the members on the organizing committee for CAD told www.mknewslink.com that it’s true Sheema district owes West Ankole diocese some money but that they won’t pay it because Bishop Rt Rev Twinomujuni Johnson told them to forget each and everything of the past, adding that even the debts should be forgotten.
