Abim, Uganda | URN | A Sunday church service at All Saints Church of Uganda in Abim Town Council, Abim District, was thrown into chaos after a disagreement between a reverend and a local council chairperson turned physical. The incident happened at around 9:00 am when Innocent Oyo, the LC2 Chairperson of Wiawer Parish, stood up during the service and asked Rev. Can. Richard Ongom, who was leading the prayers, to allow him to make an announcement.

Oyo said he was in a hurry and wanted to pass on information to members of the community before leaving. According to eyewitnesses, Rev. Ongom asked him to wait until the prayer service was over or give the announcement to the church media team to deliver on his behalf. This did not go down well with Oyo, who accused the reverend of undermining him.
