In this years Easter message to Ugandans, the President thanked them for responding well and listening to the guidelines, which were enumerated.

“This years observance of Easter comes at a time when the world faces the COVID19 challenge. I am aware that people are not going to celebrate Easter in the usual way. This has been occasioned by this pandemic. I wish to thank all Ugandans for responding well and listening to the guidelines which we enumerated,” he said in a letter to all countrymen, countrywomen and the Bazzukulu today.
