It is alleged that Bonnke, staged their first mega gospel crusade in Jinja district, however, the then central government representative, Cleophas Karashani, pulled him off the pulpit, accusing him of sound pollution and deterring people from working.
The agriculture affairs state minister, Fred Bwiino(M), the Jinja district L.C.V chairperson, Moses Batwala(L) and Michael Mubiike, a pastor from Busoga christian leaders fellowship(R), praying.
Leaders in
Busoga on Saturday repented before Christ for All Nations-CFAN church leader after
a 32-year standoff that led to the humiliation of their then leader, Reinhard
Bonnke.
Late Bonnke, the founder of CFAN and his ministry was renowned for
organizing mega crusades in different countries, across Africa.
Bonnke died
at the age of 79 years in 2019 and he was succeeded by Daniel Kolenda, who
currently heads the USA-based CFAN Church.
It is
alleged that Bonnke, staged their first mega gospel crusade in Jinja district, however,
the then central government representative, Cleophas Karashani, pulled him off
the pulpit, accusing him of sound pollution and deterring people from working.
Bonnke, is reported to have cursed Jinja town,
which leaders from the Busoga sub-region attribute to underdevelopment.
Michael
Mubiike, an aide of Karashani at the time says that the story of the curse has
haunted the Busoga sub-region for about 32 years. He believes that their
reconciliation with the current CFAN leaders is a total relief.
Citing the gospel of Mark: 9:4-5, which empowers preachers to curse those who
reject the gospel of Jesus Christ, Bwiino argues that, Bonnke’s humiliation has
negatively affected the region.

Cue out…and to God,”.
The First Deputy Prime Minister and Woman MP Kamuli, Rebecca Kadaga, says that
CFAN’s return to preaching the gospel is a positive attribute, geared towards
enhancing the region’s spiritual and economic transformation.
//cue in: “I want to…
Cue out…people of Jinja,”.
The Bishop of Busoga Diocese, Paul Naimanhe, said that repentance has
opened up a new chapter between God and his people.
