Sheikh Muhammad Murshid Luwemba, the Uganda Muslim Supreme Council- UMSC Secretary for Religious Affairs said in a September 16th 2021 letter that Sheikh Bagunduuse’s services were terminated with immediate effect.

He is also accused of failure to comply with his lawful suspension from Office on Feb 19, 2021 to pave way for investigations and refusal to handover the Office to the Care- Taker Kadhi Sheikh Badru Uzairu Wasajja and exhibiting indiscipline by deliberately fueling confusion among Muslims.
