The worrying reports have prompted Christians from the Pentecostal churches to gather at Kyambuba Christian Fellowship Church in Kabutsye Masheruka Town Council to pray for an end to Domestic Violence and other violences against women and children in the district.

Presiding over the service, Pastor Elijah Asingwiire Apuuli expressed disappointments with the ongoing evil acts in Sheema district which was formerly a model district in the region.
“Sheema was a model district in the whole of greater Bushenyi district. Its so shameful that it is now known for leading in Domestic Violence and teenage pregnancies in the region!” Pastor Elijah said.

He accuses parents of neglecting their boy children who impregnant the young girls. He added that many households in the area are suffering grind poverty to a point of selling off their assets and animals due to domestic violence.

Some of the christians who talked to The Ankole Times shared their views on what ought be done to end domestic violence practices in Sheema district.
Harriet Tumusiime, a christian said that men in Sheema have turned wild in families somthing she alleges has resulted into family violence.

Christians further played for families violating the rights of their casual labourers torturing and abusing them as useless persons in society, fake pastors who siphon christians under guise of performing miracles and wonders.

Christians have been urged to be good examples to the married families to always preach to them the gospel of reconciliation among couples with misunderstandings.
Last month, Kyambuba Christian Fellowship Church declared a seven days of prayer and fasting for Sheema district over murder cases that had raged the district.
