House of Prayer Ministries International leader Pastor Aloysius Bujjingo has publicly prayed for embattled former Speaker Anita Among, asking God to touch President Yoweri Museveni’s heart and bless her with another powerful government job despite the political troubles surrounding her.
During an emotional church service at his Makerere Kikoni-based ministry in Kampala, Bujjingo called upon his congregation to raise their hands and pray for Anita Among, her husband Moses Magogo, and their children.
The outspoken pastor described Among as a person going through painful and difficult moments, insisting that she still deserves prayers, compassion, and another chance in public service.
Bujjingo emotionally presented Anita Among before “the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob,” asking God to carry her through the storm currently surrounding her political life.
He also prayed for her children, saying they should not suffer because of the political and legal troubles facing their mother.
“Those children are not only Anita’s children. They are God’s children and Ugandan children,” Bujjingo reportedly told the congregation.
The pastor further prayed for Among’s husband, Moses Magogo, who is both a Member of Parliament and President of the Federation of Uganda Football Associations (FUFA).
Bujjingo also acknowledged the friends and allies who have remained loyal to Anita Among during her difficult period, praising those who refused to abandon her despite growing pressure and criticism.
In one of the most talked-about moments of the service, the pastor directly prayed that President Museveni forgives Anita Among and gives her another opportunity to serve in government.
“Dear God, calm the storm around her. Let President Museveni reconcile with her and give her another position to serve Ugandans,” Bujjingo prayed passionately.
The pastor insisted that Anita Among should not be judged as entirely evil, arguing that all human beings are capable of both good and bad actions.
“Among is not a completely bad person. All human beings make mistakes. God can still use her,” Bujjingo told worshippers.
His prayers come at a time when Anita Among remains under intense scrutiny from security agencies investigating allegations of illicit enrichment, abuse of office, corruption, and money laundering.
In recent days, security operatives have reportedly raided several properties linked to the former Speaker, including her residences and offices in Kampala’s upscale neighborhoods.
Reports indicate that investigators recovered documents, luxury items, and vehicles believed to be relevant to ongoing investigations into her wealth and financial dealings.
The political pressure eventually forced Anita Among to withdraw from the race for Speaker of the 12th Parliament, marking a dramatic fall for one of Uganda’s most powerful politicians.
Meanwhile, her husband Moses Magogo has also reportedly come under increased public attention as investigators widen scrutiny to individuals closely associated with her.
The controversy surrounding Among has continued growing, especially after allegations emerged claiming she had ambitions to remove President Museveni from power and position herself for higher political influence.
Further reports alleging the discovery of guns from Israel at properties linked to her added even more tension to the already explosive political situation.
At the same time, additional luxury vehicles were reportedly removed from Among’s Nakasero residence during subsequent security operations, fueling public debate about wealth, power, and accountability among senior officials.
Despite all the controversies, Pastor Bujjingo remains hopeful that Anita Among can politically recover. He believes forgiveness, reconciliation, and restoration are still possible if God intervenes and softens the hearts of those currently against her.
