“I have personally experienced healings that challenged even the most skeptical. When you encounter such a prophet, you realize that God speaks in different dimensions, giving direction and solving deep-rooted challenges,” Mukooli said.
He added that Prophet Bushiri’s appeal extends well beyond Uganda’s borders, with interest already registered from neighboring countries.
“I have received calls internationally and nationally—from South Sudan, from Kenya—people saying, ‘What a privilege.’ Many nations across the world are yearning to meet this man of God, and now he is coming to Uganda,” he said.
Dr Obayi highlighted Prophet Bushiri’s involvement in various economic sectors, including agriculture and education. “He owns over 20,000 acres of land where he is doing farming that is helping to raise the economy of Malawi.
