Although the
family of the man tried misleading the public by saying he is still alive,
Assistant Chief Paul Bett revealed that he gave the family of the deceased a
burial permit on July 19, the day after he died to allow them bury him. “He
died on July 18th on his way to the hospital and his son came for the permit the
following day,” said Mr Bett.
Jehovah
Wanyonyi, has an impressive number of followers in Uganda. He had back
challenges four years ago which has confined him to. This has made him to a
wheelchair at the home. He has 70 wives, 500 children and more than 1,000
grandchildren. He was reported to have said that he brought HIV/AIDS to earth
as a punishment to humanity for defying his commandments. He claimed to be the Almighty God and deemed
Jesus Christ to be his son. He's said to be 98 years old before his death.
