The minister said some youths due to money are being used by whites to spread toxic Western culture like homosexuality, lesbianism, and skimpy dressing.

Samuel Wabulakha, the former Bishop of Mbale diocese who represented John Wilson Nadaah, the Bishop of Mbale diocese urged youths to respect and fear God for the beginning of their wisdom.
He urged government to stand firm and not be threatened by the World Bank’s decision to suspend its loan facilities to Uganda saying whites must respect the cultures of Africans other than forcing them to inherit theirs.
