Untold grief and sorrow engulfed believers today at Christian Revival Church Kawaala, a city suburb, as they paid last respects to their fallen pastor, Augustine Yiga aka Abizaayo.

Pastor Yiga died early this week at Nsambya Hospital, where he had been bedridden for several days, battling a terminal illness.

Mourners have been holding vigils at his church at home ever since he died on Monday and today they thronged his church after a casket containing Yiga’s remains was brought in, such that they could have the last chance to see him, before he is buried.

However, we have since established that according to his will, Yiga decreed that he should be buried in church and with a TV Screen that shall be on 24/7, broadcasting his favourite TV station, ABS TV.
