The Minister for General Duties in the Office of the Prime Minister, Hon. Justine Kasule Lumumba, has called on all Ugandans to uphold the principles of law and order as the Lenten period reaches its conclusion. Speaking during a public engagement in Lubaga this Monday, the Minister has emphasized that the discipline exhibited by the faithful during this holy season must become a permanent fixture of national character.
Hon. Lumumba praised the heightened sense of self-control and legal compliance observed by citizens over the past forty days. She has noted that the spiritual reflection inherent in Lent offers a unique blueprint for broader civic responsibility.
The Minister’s message centers on the idea that responsible behavior is not seasonal. As Christians across the country prepare for the upcoming Easter celebrations, she has urged the public to carry the spirit of the fast into their daily interactions and business dealings.
“Let us keep observing the law as we have during the Lenten season”, Hon. Lumumba has stated, linking religious devotion directly to the stability and progress of the nation. Her remarks have served as a reminder that the values of patience, honesty, and respect for authority remain essential for communal improvement long after the religious festivities conclude.
This latest appeal aligns with Hon. Lumumba’s long-standing practice of using significant religious milestones to address national values. She has continued to advocate for the integration of spiritual growth with the duties of citizenship, encouraging Ugandans to view these seasons as opportunities for both personal and communal transformation.
As the country transitions from a period of sacrifice to one of celebration, the Minister’s call for continued order has come at a vital time. Security agencies and local leaders have begun preparing for a rise in public activity during the holidays, making her plea for sustained discipline a timely intervention for maintaining peace across the capital and beyond.
