Popular local Pastor Samuel Kakande of Synagogue Church of All Nations, on the 7th day of April 2024 during Sunday service prayers instructed his sheep to invest 300 dollars each in buying him a luxurious car – Range Rover.
Pastor Samuel Kakande, in words stated that, “all those who love prophet Kakande, listen to this, prophet kakande wants to buy a new vehicle and we are all going to contribute towards it.”
He scheduled 14th of April which shall be a designated official day for sending in the contributions for the car.
He advised his sheep abroad to start sending in their 300 dollars towards the car.
The prophet didn’t clarify on the model he wants to purchase but history dictates that this famous and luxurious prophet might not get anything below the 2023 Range Rover. The same spans from the 2023 Range Rover Evoque $46,400 starting price to the 2023 Range Rover $218,300 price on the high end. All this before taxes are imposed on it.
It should be noted that this is not the first time the famous prophet is making such a plea.
In 2015, he used money collected from church to buy a Mercedes-Benz G-class from spear motors.
In 2017, the prophet imported a new posh ride- a 2017 customised Lexus LX 570 a kind his followers and many Ugandans can only dream of owning. Pictures of the car were posted on the pastors Facebook page.
In 2022, the same prophet sought one million Ugandan shillings from each of her sheep to buy a Rolls Royce.
He noted that he does not want to touch the money he is using to build the church premises.
He told everyone who wants to buy a car to invest in his car and God shall in turn invest in their cars.
This continues to raise concerns on whether the Government should indeed regulate churches in Uganda.
