Ugandan pilgrimage to honor murdered archbishop as a martyr for freedom

Christians from different denominations plan to walk a 500 km route over 14 days to honor the late Church of Uganda archbishop Janani Luwum, murdered in 1977 by the brutal regime of Uganda’s former dictator Idi Amin Dada. Luwum was one of the most influential leaders of Christianity in Africa at the time of his death and a fierce critic of the Ugandan government’s abuses.
