Pastor Peter Kasirivu of Gabba Community Church, this week joined efforts with the church to serve communities that have been deeply affected and devastated by the rise in water levels of Lake Victoria and he corona virus pandemic in the country.
He urged the the church is God’s hands and feet during this season therefore its upon the church to help.
It should be noted that For more than four decades, environmentalists have been worried that water levels on the lake would decrease due to the construction of many hydropower dams such as Isimba on the River Nile downstream.
However, the reverse has happened, with torrential rains increasing the water levels and submerging many settlements and commercial settings along the shores which have had to adapt or relocate.
