WHEN GOD DIES OF COVID-19 : Self-proclaimed god and
Museveni’s friend Owobusobozi Ruhanga Bisaka death kept secret: Museveni’s
Soldiers arrest Journalist investigating god’s death
Omukama Ruhanga Owobusobozi Bisaka, a 91-year-old self-professed god
and founder of the Ugandan cult, Faith of Unity, died of Coronavirus
(COVID-19) on Tuesday January 19th, 2021, and is already scheduled to meet his real creator, the Almighty God to explain how he became a god on earth.
Owobusobozi Bisaka claimed to have supernatural powers to heal all
kinds of illnesses and said he was able to reunite people from all over
the world.
His cult which has its origins in Kapyemi village, Muhoro Town
council, Kagadi District, which is approximately 156miles west of the
Ugandan capital, has over 2 million followers in the great lakes region
of East Africa alone.
However, on Tuesday news circulated on social media about his death,
although many of his believers didn’t accept it at first, since he had
always claimed to be immortal.
But as of press time it had been confirmed that the latter succumbed to the deadly global pandemic COVID-19.
It shall be remembered that the deceased contributed a whooping
Shs200m to the Ugandan National COVID-19 Task Force, although that
didn’t stop the virus from claiming his life.
Bisaka was reported to have collapsed months ago due to high blood
pressure and was rushed to Aga Khan Hospital where he was monitored and
nursed back to health.
Days before the presidential polls he was rumoured to be dead but all these were brushed off by his followers.
Bisaka was born on June 11th , 1930 at Kitoma Kiboizi, Bujuni parish. He desired so much to be a priest but never got a chance to fulfil his dream.
He later qualified as a teacher and started serving the Catholic
Church as a choirmaster. Bisaka composed many catholic Lunyoro hymns
which are still sung by Catholics to date.
In 1948, he failed being admitted to the Minor Seminary and that was when he changed his attitude towards church leaders.
He thereafter became a critic of the Catholic Church and finally announced his revelation in 1975.
It was that revelation that got him out of church completely and he
began his own cult, declaring himself a god. His followers pray every 2nd, 12th and 22nd of each month.
However, Bisaka’s death was kept a secret from many Ugandans as it’s
believed that it would have interrupted the presidential polls because
he was an ardent supporter of the ruling National Resistance Movement
(NRM) who had rallied all his followers to vote for the party’s
candidate.
Bisaka lost many of his followers when his son died after they
wondered why he wouldn’t raise his own son from the dead if he was
indeed a god.
For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?(Mark 8:36)
And
he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's
life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.
Luke 12:15)
It remains to the ruling party and Ugandan government as to when it intends to break this tragic news.
We have established that his body was transported to Mbarara hospital
for post-mortem where it was confirmed that he had succumbed to
COVID-19 and burial arrangements are under way to lay his soul to rest.
The ruling National Resistance Movement,
(NRM) has lost a great supporter and party agent, the self-proclaimed
god Omukama Ruhanga Owobusobozi Desteo Bisaka who passed on in Kenya, a
day before Uganda’s presidential general elections.
Bisaka, and known to his followers as Owobusobozi of ‘Association for
the Healing Place of God of All Armies’ is reported to have collapsed
at his palace in Kapyemi Kibaale district last month.
Following the collapse, his health deteriorated further and he was
rushed to AgaKhan hospital in Kenya with Kenya Airways. He later died
last week in the same hospital on 13th January.
His death had been kept a secret due election. It is alleged that his
announcement would have caused election loss for incumbent Yoweri
Kaguta Museveni whom he supported and rallied for supporters.
President Museveni last month sent a special envoy to Omukama Ruhanga
Owobusobozi in Kapyemi led by Maj. Katabazi Imme the Deputy Director
General ISO who had special message from the president and asked
Owobusobozi Bisakka to canvas votes for NRM and all flag Bearers
Bisaka was born on 11 June 1930 in the Kitoma Kiboizi village, in
Buyanja county, Kibaale district in Western Uganda. His parents were
Petero Byombi and Agnes Kabaoora. Both of them were staunch members of
the local Catholic parish of Bujuni (Bisaka 1987). According to Bisaka,
he spent little time with his parents, as he lived and grew up with his
grandparents from the age of eight years.
His father was a Catholic catechist, as was his grandfather,
Alifonsio Wenkere, who was a pioneer convert at Bujuni Catholic parish.
His grandmother, Martha Nyakaka, was also a Catholic convert and a
captive in the palace of Mengo, where she witnessed to the martyrdom of
Charles Lwanga and 21 other Ugandan martyrs in the 19th century (Ateenyi
2000:67-68). While his grandfather was occupied with church activities
at the local parish, young Bisaka was tutored in Catholic teachings and
doctrines by his grandmother, whose spiritual life formed a backbone and
religio-moral compass for her grandson
FOLLOWERS PLOT FLEEING AFTER ‘GOD’ BISAKA OWN CHILD DIES
Kagadi-based Prophet Owobusobozi Bisaka (born Desteo
Bisaka) risks losing multitudes of his followers after losing his own
son (Biijabyonka Bisaka) in circumstances that have forced many
followers to begin questioning the man’s own spiritual teachings.
Calling himself ‘god,’ Bisaka has always promoted the view that there is
no death for those who subscribe to his “Owobusobozi” religious
beliefs. Because the news of ‘god’ Bisaka’s own son’s death risked
eroding followers’ confidence and contradicting the man’s own central
message of death not being real, his close aides ensured the entire
thing was kept secret. “It remains a top secret up to this point in time
and those who attended it were strictly by invite. And even the very
lucky few who were invited to the burial were heavily restricted and
gagged to the extent that smart phones weren’t allowed into the burial
grounds,” says an influential member of Prophet Bisaka’s spiritual
group. The very secretive burial took in Kagadi Muhooro inside Bisaka’s
palace. The 45-year-old left 11 wives and 22 children. He had strange
symptoms prior to his death including endlessly vomiting blood. It’s for
that reason that the actual cause of the controversial Bisaka’s son
remains officially unknown.
Some critics have sarcastically said that since Bisaka calls himself
‘God,’ then he should cause the resurrection of his son just like the
Biblical God raised his son Jesus Christ from the tomb after just three
days. “Failing to do that will deprive him of bragging rights to
continue calling himself God,” says one of the theologians who has
always been contemptuous of Bisaka’s message. The same scholar adds; “He
always tells people he is God who heals diseases; how then could he
fail to heal his own son? All this does one thing and that’s
contradicting his message.”
In his brief summon to the small gathering, Bisaka consoled himself
by saying his son will resurrect some day. He also said the fact that
Jesus was son of God (who he doesn’t believe in by the way because he
considers himself to be God) but still died is indicative what befell
his son shouldn’t alarm any of his followers. But the truth is Bisaka
risks losing more followers should the promised resurrection of his son
fail to take place in the coming few days as anticipated.
The
burial ceremony for Bisaka’s son was deliberately low-key to avoid his
own message on death (and himself being God) not being contradicted
ABOUT BISAKA
He was born Desteo Bisaka and originally a teacher and catechist in
the Catholic Church in Kibaale Western Uganda. Then in 1980 he claimed
to have seen a revelation which resulted into him being vested with
powers to heal and save. With this new conviction, he then left the
Catholic faith and founded his own church, Faith Unity in 1981.
He also changed his name to Owobusobozi (he who is all able) and wrote a
book his followers use as their Bible. Bisaka’s followers who are
concentrated in Kibaale, Kyenjojo, Kabarole and Mubende districts
believe he is ‘God’ himself. They accordingly take off their shoes and
kneel whenever they come into his presence. They also emulate deity by
wearing white clothing to worship and practice polygamy. The 88-year-old
Bisaka practices the polygamy he preaches by having five wives himself
with whom he consummates marriage on a daily basis. Besides polygamy,
his teachings have always stressed non-existence of death. Some
followers fondly call him Omukama Ruhanga Owobusobozi Bisaka, something
he always feels very good about.
