We Shall Support You – Museveni To New Orthodox Archbishop

President Museveni has promised to support the new Orthodox Archbishop in his new journey. His Eminence Metropolitan Jeronymos Muzeeyi replaced late Metropolitan Jonah Lwanga who passed away in September 2021.

The President was meeting a 22-member delegation of Uganda Orthodox Church at State House Entebbe.

“I am very happy to meet you and definitely we shall support you,” Museveni said.

His Eminence Metropolitan Tillyrides Andreas Makarios, the Archbishop of Nairobi introduced Metropolitan Jeronymos.

He is also the representative of the Patriarch of Alexandria. He also requested the President to support Jeronymos as he supported Lwanga.

“Your excellency, today I have the joy on behalf of our Pope and Patriarch, to present to you the new metropolitan of Kampala and all Uganda, His Eminence Jeronymos Muzeeyi. He is an outstanding theologian and an accomplished Canonist of the Church. I am confident that with your support and that of the Orthodox fraternity of Uganda, His Eminence Jeronymos has the potential to steer his church to greater spiritual heights, ” Metropolitan Makarios said.

The President also asked the Orthodox Church to identify Orthodox founded education institutions.

“If the school is in an area where there’s no government school, we shall take it over to become a government school but a Church founded as a foundation body. We also normally have that formula,” Museveni said.
