The Constitution says that we respect the colonial borders, both on the border with Uganda and other countries and internally, so that is point number one,\u201d Mr Museveni said during the closing ceremony of a four-day gospel crusade.<\/p>\n<p>The event was organised by the first daughter, Pr Patience Rwabwogo of the Covenant Nations Church, at Kaunda Grounds in Gulu City at the weekend.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo this issue of Apaa, Apaa, especially political leaders who misguide people; I said what are you quarrelling for? The maps are there, we shall be going to find where Apaa is, according to the colonial maps,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Museveni further revealed that it does not matter where Apaa is located, whether in Madi or Acholi, but Ugandans can live anywhere and you do not have to live in one district only as a tribe.<\/p>\n<p><b>Probe<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The President recently appointed a judicial commission chaired by former Chief Justice Bart Katureebe to investigate and come up with a report on Apaa issue.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, the medicine for this is the commission. They will discover those who have been causing problems, telling lies, inciting people and bringing people artificially, who were not originally there. They will expose all these ungodly people. If you are a leader you should never tell lies,\u201d Mr Museveni said.<\/p>\n<p>The President also urged Pentecostal Church leaders to live according to the Gospel of Christ and work hard to transform Uganda.<\/p>\n<p>He advised the Born-Again Christians to embrace hard work and emulate Jesus Christ who preached, healed the sick, and fed the hungry.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou have understood the mission of Jesus Christ holistically, preach the gospel, heal the sick, feed the hungry, and work with your own hands as Jesus did. The Born-Again don\u2019t drink, they don\u2019t play around with their lives, they can be very good agents of transformation,\u201d Mr Museveni said.<\/p>\n<p><b>Modern farming<\/b><\/p>\n<p>The President pledged two tractors for the Born-Again Christians in the Acholi Sub-region to support commercial farming.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI will give you two tractors for now, so that you fully follow the Gospel of Jesus Christ,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The prayer is a yearly event organised by the Covenant Nations Church, under the theme \u201cLight Up\u201d and for Acholi, the event was marked with prayers and intercessions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/uganda\">Uganda<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Uganda.
