Uganda: Muslims murder evangelist after several Muslims convert at public Christian-Muslim dialogue

Central street in Busia, Uganda

Jihad Watch : Muslims are forbidden under Sharia to convert to another religion, on pain of death. Members of other religions are forbidden under Sharia to proselytize among Muslims. So there is nothing surprising or unusual about the Muslims’ behavior in this instance.“Evangelist Killed after Event in Uganda,” Morning Star News, December 29, 2025:

NAIROBI, Kenya (Morning Star News) – Muslim extremists in Uganda killed an evangelist after a public Christian-Muslim dialogue on Dec. 12, sources said.

Konkona Kasimu, a convert from Islam, was known for his deep understanding of both the Bible and the Quran and had participated in Christian-Muslim dialogues across several districts, including Iganga, Mayuge, Jinja and Kampala. He was 42.

His church, New Eden Church, organized an open-air dialogue in eastern Uganda’s Busia town on Dec. 8-12, deploying a team of four evangelists, three men and one woman, with Kasimu as the lead speaker while the others assisted in counseling and discipling new Christians, church leaders said. 

What is somewhat surprising is the continued Western indifference to and denial of the manifest fact of the death penalty for apostasy and attendant human rights abuses in Muslim countries, but this denial and willful ignorance has gone on for so many years now, most people don’t even notice it.
