President Yoweri Museveni has urged Church leaders to emulate the first evangelists who preached the gospel to the people and they got saved.

Ruhindi was buried on Saturday at his ancestral home in Nyakisoroza, Nyakishenyi Sub County in Rukungiri district.
Museveni noted that the late Rev. Can Geresomu Ruhindi has left behind a legacy the general public should emulate for all he has done as a person on earth.
The President said that the late Ruhindi was not only an evangelist but also a teacher who taught communities on poverty eradication, health and encouraged them to educate their children
Former prime minister Mbabazi said Ruhindi treated them as his own sons when they married his daughters and taught them and his children to work hard.
The late Ruhindi served the government, church and general community in different capacities as teacher, priest, and court assessor and as senior citizen.
Dr. Chris Baryomunsi, the state minister for housing and urban development, urged the church to put a project and name it after the late Ruhindi in honour of his works of developing the church and the evangelism he spread in the whole of Kigezi.
