Pastor Sempa Launches 60-Day Campaign to Expose and Report Vulgar Entertainment to President Museveni
Pastor Martin Ssempa of Makerere Community Church has launched a 60-day campaign aimed at exposing entertainers involved in indecency, vulgarity, and inappropriate performances.
In a recent media interview, Sempa expressed his concern about the negative impact of such behavior on Ugandan society, especially on the youth, whom he believes are being misled.
Sempa mentioned that he will be attending various shows and recording any instances of indecency he observes.
He further urged all Ugandans to join the fight by recording and sending any such incidents to him.
“We cannot just sit back and watch the country’s moral standards deteriorate,” he stated firmly.
The pastor is determined to take the issue to higher authorities, as he plans to share these recordings with President Museveni.
“The president needs to know that his Bazukulu are being spoiled,” Sempa emphasized, stressing that action must be taken to protect the nation’s moral standards.
In addition to his campaign, Pastor Sempa revealed his aspiration to secure a position at the Uganda Communications Commission (UCC) to ensure that the fight against vulgarity and indecency in the entertainment industry is more effectively addressed.
“I used to speak out against indecency and felt like I was fighting that battle alone, but now there is progress,” he noted with optimism.
Sempa also acknowledged the efforts of other influential figures in Uganda, including the Katikkiro of Buganda, Charles Peter Mayiga, who recently expressed dissatisfaction with the growing vulgarity and indecency in the music industry.

This, according to Sempa, marks a positive shift in the national discourse on morality and entertainment.
With the campaign in full swing, Pastor Sempa is hopeful that his efforts will inspire more Ugandans to take a stand against indecency in the entertainment sector, ensuring that the young generation is not negatively influenced by harmful content.
Pastor Sempa’s statements follow UCC’s ban, initiated by the Uganda National Cultural Centre (UNCC), on vulgar and inappropriate music and conduct.
The move impacts entertainers such as Gravity Omutujju, Lil Pazo, Gloria Bugie, Shakira Shakiraa, and Ritah Dancehall, among others.
