Uganda has a significant number of citizens, over 358,000, employed in the Middle East, who remit approximately $1.2 billion annually.

However, efforts are being made to address the issues surrounding labor externalization, with President Yoweri Museveni and his daughter Patience Rwabwogo speaking out against the practice. Patience, the senior pastor of the Covenant Nations Church in Luzira, described the growing trend of young Ugandans seeking employment in the Middle East as “a sign of a cursed nation” and called for divine intervention.

She emphasized that Ugandans should pray for blessings in their own land, rather than seeking employment as maids in foreign households.The First Daughter described as “a sign of a cursed nation,” the burgeoning labour externalization market in Uganda, calling for Ugandans to pray for divine intervention.

“It is a curse for our children to go and start working in people’s houses in Saudi Arabia,” she said.

“The Lord wants us to be blessed here in our land. We need to break that curse of our people going to get jobs as maids in people’s homes.”

The labor externalization market in Uganda has become a contentious issue, with the government estimating that over 358,000 Ugandans are employed in the Middle East, particularly in Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Oman, the United Arab Emirates, Afghanistan, and Kuwait.

While these workers contribute significantly to Uganda’s economy through remittances, there have been reports of human rights abuses and inadequate legal protections for migrant workers. Instances of exploitation and mistreatment by unscrupulous employers and illegal recruitment agencies have also been reported.

To address these issues, the Ugandan government and stakeholders are working towards strengthening the regulatory framework and ensuring better management of the sector. President Museveni has spoken out against shipping out youthful labor to foreign lands, emphasizing Uganda’s potential in sectors such as commercial agriculture, industry, services, and ICT.

Mrs Rwabwogo, in her sermon, rallied believers to pray for their country to be rid of curses such as labor externalization and corruption, and to clothe themselves with salvation and righteousness.

“Parts of the country are clothed not in salvation but in wickedness, sin and corruption,” she said.

“We need to remove the garments of inequity and corruption and clothe ourselves with salvation and righteousness.”

The crusade, held under the theme “Redigging the wells of revival,” featured a list of preachers including Pastors Alex Mitala, Joshua Lwere, Moses Odong, John Bunjo, and Michael Kimuli, among others.
