Speaking at Mityana Seventh-day Adventist Church on Saturday, Bishop Kaggya said that marriage matters should be left to churches and religious leaders not politicians.
“Marriage is an institution established by God and the most proponents of godly matters are the pastors. But to my surprise, I have not seen any Member of Parliament coming to consult from me over the matter,” Kaggya said.
He said that in church marriage is considered a lifetime commitment and no one can institute divorce other than God.
