The General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG, Pastor Enoch Adejare Adeboye and his wife, Pastor Foluke Adenike Adeboye visited President, Yoweri Museveni and his wife, Janet Museveni at their residence in Uganda.

Adeboye, who is in the country at the invitation of the RCCG in Uganda, together with his wife, is holding a series of Christian public meetings at Kololo Independence Ceremonial grounds in Kampala which began Thursday and will end Saturday, 15 June, 2019.

During a cordial meeting held at State House Entebbe on Thursday, President Museveni received blessings in form of prayer from Pastor Adeboye.

Pastor Adeboye invoked God to bless the president with good health, prosperity and the continued wisdom to lead Uganda peacefully.

President Museveni was happy to note that the Pentecostal Churches are now participating in projects that are creating prosperity for themselves and other people.

“Christians are now learning how to create wealth on earth as per the parable of the talents. Earlier on, they were laid back, and withdrawn on earth waiting for God.

“This was a means of escapism from living well. I now have a Bishop like Lwere involved in wealth creation projects,” Museveni said.

The host reiterated that while he had earlier had arguments with some teachings of the Christian doctrine movements in his student days, the Pentecostal Churches are now integrated and are helping the people.

“A while back, the Balokole were being harassed by some religions. They were saying that they were liars and enthusiasts who claimed that they performed miracles.

“ I told these people that I had no problem with them. If they were lying, only God would deal with them,” he said.

In his reponse, Pastor Adeboye thanked President Museveni for keeping peace in Uganda, adding that it was the role of Christians to have influence in all facets of life including their wellbeing.
