Country of seers: Why Uganda is a nation of a million prophets

Ugandan flag

• Uganda has a rather rampant elevation of predictions to prophecies
• Whoever waves the Bible and makes a right prediction calls himself a prophet
• Women are also claiming a significant role in this growing sector of prophecy

Welcome to Uganda, the land of a million prophets. Unlike in the olden days when a new prophet would come up a hundred years after the last one passed away, in Uganda we get a hundred new prophets every year.

And those are the big ones. We shall talk about the mini-prophets later.
