Articles labeled: Sir Tito Winyi Primary School

You know, it would be easy to make fun of Uganda’s nutty beliefs, if we didn’t have our own number of kooks in our own country (a previously very viable presidential candidate that thinks the Earth is only 6,000 years old comes to mind). Not to mention sometimes we wonder if our own kids are possessed by demons as well, especially after they have eaten a couple cupcakes…

The New Vision said that authorities at Sir Tito Winyi Primary School in the western district Hoima described the “hysterical” students as suffering from a demonic attack.

“The situation is bad. About 100 pupils are totally mad. They are chasing everybody including teachers and fellow pupils, throwing stones, banging doors and windows,” the paper quoted headmaster Vincent Kitende as saying.

Kitende said that a similar incident took place at the school late last year, affecting more than 200 students that time, according to the paper.
