Uganda: Prophet Mbonye Moves to Support National Welfare Programmes

4 November 2024

Prophet Elvis Mbonye has offered to assist the government in replenishing its coffers, proposing to support national welfare programmes.

The pledge was made during the launch of his 12-week evangelism drive, a community outreach inspired by the Biblical call to be "our brother's keeper."

The prophet explained that some people need material blessings to recognise God's grace, committing to provide for individuals, families, and potentially the government.

"We want to ask the government of Uganda, 'How can we bless you?"' Mbonye stated. "If they haven't heeded our spiritual support, we'll present our resources and offer aid in their activities."

Mbonye assured that his financial resources are "mysterious" and abundant, adding, "Some people will respond to the language of money before the spirit. When we give them material support, we'll show them its divine source, and they too shall prosper."
