Pastor Yiga, Nooooooooooooooooo

"I didn't say we don't have Corona virus (COVID19) as a disease, I meant we don't have it as a word here in Uganda, it's an English word so you didn't get me well " Pastor Yiga defends himself in a statement upon his arrest, meanwhile the Uganda police yesterday confirmed his arrest in a Facebook post on their page

”Press Release

PASTOR AUGUSTINE IGA OF REVIVAL CHURCH KAMPALA ARRESTED

The Uganda Police Force has arrested Pastor Augustine Iga of Revival Church Kawala, Rubaga Division in Kampala over false utterances and passing harmful propaganda relating to the current Corona Virus (COVID 19) pandemic in the country.

The Pastor is suspected to have said, in a video recording branded by BBS TV, that the Corona Virus is not in Uganda. The video that went viral undermines government efforts in fighting the COVID 19 pandemic and exposes the public to dangers of laxity in observing the guidelines issued by the Ministry of Health on its control and prevention.

The action of Pastor Iga promotes the spread of the COVID 19 and can therefore be considered as a direct attack on the people of the Republic of Uganda. Therefore, the suspect, who is currently detained at Old Kampala Police Station, will be interviewed to establish the motive behind the dangerous utterances.

We appeal to the public to desist from making false or alarming utterances concerning COVID 19 and disregard information not from authorized government structures.
