These headlines are deliberately misleading. There has been a lot of misinformation about this matter with headlines such as: “Gays face death penalty in Uganda”. Some people have asked about the rationale of a death penalty mentioned in the Bill. Of the bill, Ssempa has stated the following: Former US President Barack Obama referred to the bill as "odious". Ssempa champions the bill by showing gay pornography, depicting fisting, anilingus, and coprophilia in his church and at conferences, publicised and circulated on the internet as "Eat Da Poo Poo". He is a strong advocate of the Uganda Anti-Homosexuality Bill. Ssempa has advocated a cessation of tribal rivalries and hatred in Uganda.
Ssempa claims to be leading a crusade to "kick sodomy out of Uganda, endorsing proposed legislation in Uganda that makes certain homosexual acts punishable by life in prison or, in some severe cases of rape, death".
Ssempa opposes the separation of church and state and the use of condoms to prevent HIV contraction, and supports abstinence plus fidelity education in the fight against sexual diseases.

During his teenage years he became a celebrity in East Africa as the national break dancing champion.

Hydro says it has completed three separate internal audits of Site C with no major findings, and it regular analyzes payment data for potential fraud.Martin Ssempa was born in Naluzaale of Uganda's Masaka District in 1968 to a single mother. Pickup says BC Hydro accepted the audit's recommendations and its board of directors approved a fraud risk policy last January. The audit did not look for or investigate possible instances of fraud, but makes five recommendations to improve fraud risk management, including implementing policy and investigation procedures, staff training, regular assessments and evaluating effectiveness. Pickup's audit says the Global Infrastructure Anti-Corruption Centre warns the risk of fraud increases with the size and complexity of large infrastructure projects, because it becomes harder to compare costs and detect corruption. Michael Pickup says an audit found the Crown corporation has some elements of fraud management in place for the hydroelectric project but has not established an overall program for Site C, which is slated for completion in 2025. British Columbia's auditor general says Crown-owned BC Hydro can improve its management of potential fraud risks at the $16 billion Site C dam project.
