Witch Hunt: Aspiring MP Sureman Ssegawa Finds beheaded Rat With No legs At Home Everyday

Mubende Municipality Aspiring Member of Parliament Ismail Ssegawa commonly known as Sureman Ssegawa is yet to Free his Home house in Kikona-Kyabataaji West Division Mubende Municipality over witches.

Ismail says ever since he announced his location due to political influences that his voters wanted him to show where he lives but since he showed where he lives every time he comes home from work he finds prescribed medicine at his door space.

speaking to Mubende post Sureman Ssegawa said the first time, he found poured mixture of things he did not understand at the small gate entering his house but he did not jump and thanked the Creator that saved him.

“Fear God because I always come back without a torch and open the gate and get to the main door, but today when I came I put on the torch outside and came lighting it everywhere and I saw it ( witches) that’s how I have survived to jump” Ssegawa while talking to Mubende post.

He narrated that When he saw this he decided to keep it silent thinking maybe it was a bird that had thrown the trash but After Months surprisingly he finds a Rat without a head and legs lying in the same place.

“I came back home at night but I found When they had left a Rat without a head and legs but the motive and what kind of people that are doing this I don’t understand” he adds.

Ismail adds that he has never argued with anyone or fought. However, he is of the opinion that perhaps this maybe aimed at weakening and intimidating him so that he can withdraw from the race for the Mubende Municipality MP seat.

“But I want to tell you that all this they are doing is in vain because I have God and all they are doing will not work” Segawa said.

It is now more than four months since Ismail Ssegawa announced his candidacy but ever since his announcement there has been rivalry between Him and Sumayiya Nabawanuka on who will hold the Nup flag for Mubende Municipality, and others .

Mubende has been described as one of the districts known in practicing Witchcraft because of the cultural heritages found in including the Nakayima tourist tree.

However, witchcraft is not only heard in Mubende, it is even in other parts which led Parliament of Uganda recently to pass the Anti-Witchcraft bill.

Section 2 of the Witchcraft Act (Cap 124) prohibits the practices of witchcraft and a person who holds himself or herself out as a witch, whether on one or more occasions, commits an offence and is liable on conviction to imprisonment for a period not exceeding five years.

This followed a petition to Parliament in which concerned citizens argued that witchcraft is at the heart of rising cases of child sacrifice and ritual murders.
