| Muslim leaders have praised late former president Idi Amin for the contribution he made to the establishment of the Uganda Muslim Supreme Council (UMSC). While celebrating 32 years of the inception of the UMSC at Old Kampala on Tuesday, they praised Amin for forging unity among Muslims. The UMSC was established in 1972 and has had eight leaders since. The celebrations, which started with the inspection of the construction of the national mosque, were presided over by Mufti Sheikh Shaban Mubajje. Mubajje also hailed President Yoweri Museveni for enabling UMSC to acquire the land title of the national mosque and President Gaddafi for financially supporting its construction. |
