Hall residents in one of the halls in Makerere University must be very frustrated people. Frustrated yes, otherwise why would any sober man denounce God?
Every Monday, the popular Afrostone solidarity, that’s Africa and Livingstone, hosts the Afrostone fellowship in the Livingston quadrangle. This religious affair appears to be destined for bad days.
The hall residents express serious agitation to what one member referred to as religious extremity. The fact that the fellowship uses heavy systems and attracts droves of worshipping Christians doesn’t make it any better.
A hall minister added that the preaching interferes with their “relationship agenda.”
“You are with your babe inside your room trying to get lucky and a pastor is loudly preaching against fornication.”
They insist the born again Christians make noise when they engage in their “speaking in tongues session” and that some hall residents fear the demons exorcised from the possessed born agains could be left in their hall because they claim every Monday nights, they hardly sleep and in addition hear strange voices in their corridors.
The hall chairman Kawule Vivian agrees complaints had been raised but refused to comment on the course of action.
“It’s very absurd, because the community was expelled from Africa because of the same reasons, it’s highly likely the Afrostone fellowship will be no more if the Livingston committee insists on kicking them out Kaziba Michael,” a hall elder and member of the fellowship added.
A petition is making rounds in the rooms in a move calculated to kick the fellowship out of Livingstone.
