John Mugisha Muhwezi Nyindombi who presided over the Mary’s day at Emmanuel Cathedral Kinyasano as the guest of honor said women in mothers’ union need to be role models in their families by ensuring responsibility.
Nyindombi added that the current issue of homosexuality can be handled and fought well by the church more than the government because many people believe in teachings of religious leaders rather than politicians.
