By Patrick Jaramogi and Flavia Nakagwa
THE Uganda Joint Christian Council has condemned the Commonwealth for
attempting to forcefully impose homosexuality on developing nations.
During anti-homosexuality inter-faith prayers at the Commonwealth Peoples Open
Space on Friday, the council said the act constituted a threat to the unity of the bloc.
Rev. Canon Grace Kaiso, the executive secretary of the council, said: “We are
ready for CHOGM but we are not ready for homosexuality.”
Pastor Martin Sempa of the Makerere Community Church said: “As religious leaders,
we are challenging the communique that was drafted by the Commonwealth People’
s Forum delegates seeking to legalise homosexuality in all Commonwealth countries.
To us, this is the start of the disintegration of the Commonwealth.”
In its recommendations, the People’s Forum urged the Commonwealth leaders to
consider the rights of all minorities, including homosexuals and lesbians.
