The staff of Kingdom Media (His Kingdom Broadcasting Services Ltd) have been forced to contribute towards their Managing Director’s (MD) birthday bash which is slated for August 17, 2023 to please their boss who is a well-known pastor of a church in the Kampala City suburb.

Kingdom Broadcasting Services Ltd comprises of Kingdom FM and Kingdom Television, located in Mengo-Kisenyi in Kampala district whose MD, founder and a Senior Pastor of Christian Focus Center Church, is Bishop David Livingstone Kiganda.

Bishop Kiganda who will be celebrating his 59th birthday was born on August 17, 1964, in Nyendo, Masaka district.

Always clad in tuxedos and sunhats which shows that he lives a stylish, luxurious and extravagant life is not even sorry of milking his own staff over a mere birthday bash.

The notice circulated on social media indicated how all Kingdom Media staff had been directed to participate in the birthday arrangements of their MD.

The notice to the entire staff gave two options of either by paying cash at the Front desk between August 14 and 16, 2023, or make a pledge through the administrator’s office between the same dates, which contribution will be deducted from the employee’s salary.

Sources within Kingdom Media who revealed on condition of anonymity said that, this was the topic of discussion in the corridors of the media house as  some employees were heard complaining  about the directive given that they get little pay.

“I don’t understand why I should be forced to contribute towards my boss’s birthday party yet I don’t even earn enough to sustain my own self,” One of the employee lamented.

Kiganda got married to his first wife Hadijja Nasejje on October 27, 1991, at Victory Christian Center Ndeeba after cohabiting for some years and they there after separated in 2006, before they officially divorced in 2012, on accounts of adultery, cruelty and desertion. After his divorce with his first wife with whom they had five children, he then got married to a Zimbabwean, Pastor Cindy Kiganda on April 6, 2013.

The controversial Bishop made rounds on social media when he devilishly okayed homosexuality while speaking to his followers during an overnight church service on March 10, 2023, after MP Asuman Basalirwa presented the Private Member’s Bill for the first reading before the floor of Parliament on Thursday, March 9, 2023.

He also advised his sheep not to make decisions without further reasoning and to increase their offertory if they did not want homosexuality in his church.

“There’s money in homosexuality. So, if you don’t want it, then increase your offertory,” Kiganda told his flocks.

However, it is yet to be established how much each staff is supposed to contribute and where the birthday celebrations will be held.
