Among the Pastors that attended the meeting were; Pr. Wilson Bugembe, Brother Ronnie Makabai, Pr. Mondo Mugisha, Pr. Bugingo Aloysius, Prophet Elvis Mbonye, Pr. Judith Ssozi, Pr. Eunice Akoth and Pr. Osinde among others.
The Men and Women of God during the meeting pledged their full support and that of their followers for the NRM presidential candidate in the forthcoming general elections.
They later rayed for peace during and after the hotly contested polls.
Speaking in response, President Museveni promised to support the organized groups in their churches who have formed SACCO with an aim of starting up small businesses to improve on their household incomes.
