The bishop of west Ankole diocese Rt. Rev. Johnson Twinomujuni has strongly warned Ugandan MPs against fighting in parliament while in serious discussions in the house.

He made the call today Nov. 08, 2024 during the burial ceremony of Late Obadia Ntebekeine Rushambuza at his home in Nyakabirizi Bushenyi district.

The Bishop noted that MPs should use brains to fight but not swinging chairs against each other.

He added that they can agree to disagree but not a physical fight. He warned mainly MPs from western Uganda never to be involved in such backward fights.

On Wednesday this week during a coffee bill debate, MPs Francis Zake and Anthony Akol from northern Uganda boxed each other over a chair. MP Zake is still admitted.

During Age Limit debate in a few years back, Hon. MPs boxed one another and members like Zake, Betty Namboze ended in America for treatment.

Obadia Rushambuza died at the age of 72 years  and left children and two widows. He was hugely rich with assets in Uganda and Abroad.

The chief mourner was the deputy speaker of parliament Rt Hon. Thomas Tayebwa. He delivered the message from the president of Uganda, Yoweri Museveni.

Tycoon Hassan Basajabalaba requested government to start health insurance immediately because it’s a big problem in Uganda. He said that government should partner with private health facilities and save Ugandans.

Obadia Rushambuza died on Nov. 1, 2014 in Nairobi Kenya. He was laid to rest today next to his father’s grave Late canon Zabron Rushambuza.
