The Revival played an important role in transforming Ankole, helping our people move away from alcoholism, tobacco, adultery, dishonesty and superstition, while promoting education, hygiene and family values. I was pleased to see the Church continuing to contribute to socio-economic transformation, including through coffee growing and environmental protection. I will also take up the proposal to construct a Revival Museum. We should preserve this history because it is part of our contribution to the civilisation of our people and to humanity.

Fellow Ugandans, especially the Bazzukulu,   It is with a lot of sadness that, on the behalf of all Ugandans, Maama Janet and myself, I extend our most heart-felt condolences to the Royal Family of Tooro and to all Ugandans on account of the death of the prominent Muzzukulu, His Highness Oyo, the King of Tooro at such a young age of 34. How unfair life can be!! He was orphaned while still young and he has died young.   In the short life on earth, he had shown that he had potential of working well with the Central and Local Governments to develop Tooro. What a loss to Tooro and Uganda.   Some months back, Her Royal Highness Kemigisa, Nyinomukama, came to tell me that the Muzzukulu Oyo had cancer that was very aggressive. The Government supported them to go to Germany and, then, the USA where he died.
