Popular Kampala born- again pastor Aloysius Bujjingo has appealed to his congregation for financial support to restore Salt TV, the television station owned by his ministry, to the Free-to-Air platform.
The channel was recently taken off air due to a significant outstanding debt, which Bujjingo says he is unable to clear alone.
Addressing his followers, the House of Prayer Ministries International leader explained that Salt TV is among several channels that were removed from Free to Air due to similar issues.
He noted that while other stations have successfully raised funds to return to broadcasting, Salt TV still struggles to meet the financial demands.
“This burden is too heavy for me to carry alone, that’s why I am turning to the church. If you’re willing to support the work of Christ, help us raise the necessary funds to bring Salt TV back.” He said.
He emphasized that only willing supporters should contribute, insisting no one is being forced or manipulated.
In response to potential criticism, he added, “Before accusing me of exploiting anyone, take time to understand the situation. This is about ensuring the Gospel continues to reach those in need.”
Bujjingo also gave a two-day window for fundraising, urging those who are committed to the ministry’s mission to act swiftly.
However, the appeal comes amid long-standing controversy surrounding the pastor. Like several other high-profile city preachers, Bujjingo has faced repeated accusations of exploiting his followers, particularly through persistent fundraising.
For nearly a decade, he has been collecting money to fund the construction of the ambitious Pentagon Church project—an effort that has reportedly raised billions of shillings without clear public accountability or visible progress.
As the fate of Salt TV hangs in the balance, public scrutiny continues to follow Bujjingo and his financial appeals.
