Kakira Parish was created in January 1949 with the Rev. Fr. Patrick Duggan as the first Parish Priest from the year 1949-1980. He was succeeded by Rev. Fr. Alois Krombichler MHM in 1981.

The parish was established in April 2012 by Rt. Rev. Sabino Ochan Odoki, the Local Ordinary of Arua Diocese. Since its erection as a parish, it has remained an active and lively parish. 

This Parish was established in Nov. 1st 1989 due to the flourishing faith and the long distance from the then mother parish Bukalamuli and entrusted to the Capuchin Friars.

Renowned for witchcraft, the land was once a dark hill used for rituals.
