There are suggestions that VAT should be put on collection taken at Church services.

This is the only income to run a church.

  1. Pay the Pastor maintain the church especially in these very difficult times when we are paying VAT on medical doctors and medicines food and the high cost of living. The church has lots of roles to play. When there has been savage murders of fire of flood damage who do the people run to for protection and held - The church. They give shelter, blankets and clothes the church help by training less fortunate people to make clothing and prepare them for lots of different jobs.

The church is continually helping feed and comfort people in need especially the blacks. Do you want to stop this charity work.

  1. We are very distressed to see all this business with Cheyo and Kingo.


If the different tribes want them let them have them. But they must pay and support them, they have not been democratically elected and have NO standing outside or over anyone else, and nothing to do with politics of running the country or promise.

If you giving any standing the you have to give it all.

We can also have mass action. Hoping you do not fall into this predicament.
