Ms Takwemazayo’s son, Lawrence Isanga said his mother has been
battling a mental illness since the death of her husband in a house fire
ten years ago.
Mr Isanga further explained his mother had last week disappeared and
feared dead, only to be found in Kaliro district and she was sent back
home.
“My mother has for some time now been haunted by the clan and our father’s spirits. It is not yet a week since we returned her from Kaliro where she had disappeared from,” Mr Isanga said, adding that she has refused to go to the hospital preferring local herbs treatment.
