The world has witnessed their merciless killing of innocent people, including babies, women, the elderly, and other vulnerable individuals.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Calling upon all Ugandan Muslim faithful, Mubaje urged continuous special prayers for the suffering Palestinian people.<\/p>\n<p>He also encouraged Muslims to adhere to the security measures directed by President Museveni, especially in light of the enforcement of national security in all areas, including places of worship like mosques and churches.<\/p>\n<p>Mubaje also mentioned an organised trip that took place in the Albertine region of Uganda, covering Bunyoro, where top religious leaders under the Inter-Religious Council of Uganda (IRCU) familiarized themselves with ongoing oil exploration, extraction, and the construction of a massive airport.<\/p>\n<p>Highlighting the progress of these projects, Mubaje explained that their aim is to establish industries for the production of gas, money, fertilizers, petrol, kerosene, clothing, and crude oil for export, among other expected products.<\/p>\n<p>The gathering concluded with special prayers dedicated to the souls of thousands of Palestinian martyrs, including those who have suffered severe injuries.<\/p>\n<p>These prayers were led by Sheikh Abdu Obeid Kamulegeya of the UMSC Shura Council.<\/p>\n<p><b>Source: Nile Post<\/b><\/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.
