Luwum rose through the ranks of the Anglican Church and was appointed Archbishop of the Church of Uganda\, Rwanda\, Burundi\, and Boga-Zaire in 1974. \nAs a religious leader\, Luwum became a strong moral voice during a time of widespread political oppression under the dictatorship of Idi Amin. \nLuwum used his position to publicly criticize the Ugandan government for its human rights violations\, killings and corruption. He especially condemned the military's brutality and the enforced disappearances of civilians. \nIn February 1977\, he and other church leaders delivered a protest letter directly to President Amin. Soon after delivering the letter\, Luwum was arrested under false charges of treason. \nOn February 16\, 1977\, he was killed. The government claimed it was a car accident\, but it was later revealed he had been shot in the mouth at close range. \nHis murder shocked the world and drew strong condemnation from religious leaders and governments across the globe. Luwum's death symbolized the courage of faith leaders standing up for justice\, even at the cost of their lives. \nIn 1998\, he was recognized by the Church of England with a statue at Westminster Abbey in London\, as one of the 20th-century martyrs. \nIn 2015\, the Ugandan government officially declared February 16 a public holiday to honor Archbishop Luwum's sacrifice.
