By Watchdog reporter

For the past one week, Pastor Aloysius Bugingo of House of Prayer Ministries has been making headlines in news after allegedly burning Bibles which had words ‘Holy Ghost’ instead of ‘Holy spirit’ saying that they had negative forces.

However, yesterday Bugingo refuted the claims saying that photos of burning bibles were photo shopped by his enemies who opted to defame him citing he could not do such act.

But how far do you know Pastor Bugingo?

According to News Post, born on 25th November 1972 in Masaka, Bujingo is said to be a man with a sketchy education who takes no advice except from his daughter and wife who he also at times fails to listen too. This is according to an inside source.
Bujingo for years, Bujingo has been castigating senior pastors in Uganda including his God Father Apostle Sserwadda ( with whom they separated over a car. Sources say, a follower donated a brand-new car to Sserwadda’s church, but Bujingo claimed it was his donation).

According to reliable sources, House of Prayer Ministries (HPM) is owned by Bujingo, his wife and daughter.

First registered on 10th September 2012, Bujingo signed ownership Papers of HPM as businessman and the chairman who also doubles as the executive director. While his wife Teddy Naluswa Bujingo (also registered as a businesswoman) is the Vice chairman and Secretary General. His only daughter Doreen Gift Kirabo is the third director and registered as part of the board.

Bugingo owns a media house Known as Salt Media comprising of a Salt FM and Salt TV.

According to Pastor Solomon Male, while the Salt Tv project was funded by Christians, the station is solely owned by Bujingo. He owns 100 percent shares.

Salt FM is owned by three directors: Aloysius Bujingo, House of Prayer Ministries (which is owned by Bujingo, wife and their daughter), the third director is Bujingo’s wife, Teddy Naluswa Bujingo, who is also registered as the Secretary.

He is a man who curses all those he disagrees with. He once shocked the nation when he cursed his own pregnant daughter Doreen Gift Kirabo for falling in love with a poor Catholic Man a one Nkurunziza.
Pastor Bujingo reportedly prayed to God that the daughter faces tough times in her life. Bujjingo in a full summon accused her daughter for being stupid and conniving with Catholics saying:
“How can she elope with a man of the catholic faith? It should have been a pauper; I would have excused it. But for a Catholic to elope with my daughter!” Bugingo agonized.
