First Daughter of the Republic of Uganda Pastor Patience Museveni Rwabogo on Wednesday, May 29 spoke about the importance of hope, repentance, and prayer during hard times.
Pastor Patience while speaking during the inauguration of the women`s convocation in Safari Park hotel ahead of Thursday, May 30 National Prayer Breakfast asked Kenyans to remain hopeful and repent.
She noted that many of the difficulties faced by African countries were passed down from previous generations and could only be resolved through seeking redemption.
“The modern face of corruption is an old sin and as you know, demons don’t die, they just rebrand, we therefore need to repent and denounce the old sin,” said the first daughter who was the keynote speaker at the event.
Pastor Patience further encouraged women in leadership by referencing the biblical Daniel, a government official who recognized the times, took action, and ensured that the country did not miss critical occasions.
Subsequently, she urged them to follow Daniel’s example of praying to welcome the new season.
Uganda’s first daughter also commended organizers of the event for a good job, adding that they should keep up with the good job.
