Museveni expressed his disappointment that some church leaders often engage in confrontations with traditionalists without recognizing their potential contribution to the nation's development. The President made these remarks on Sunday, June 9, during the National Heroes Day celebrations held in Gomba District. "When I am in Kampala, I sometimes hear church leaders attacking traditional religions, which are very powerful in areas like these," Museveni said. "My advice to you religious leaders is to be patient and engage in dialogue rather than just commanding people," he said. This year's National Heroes Day celebrations in Uganda were held under the theme; "Salute Our Heroes; A Secure Uganda is Now a Reality."
