According to a Ugandan police spokesperson, a woman named Josephine Nyapendi reported that she had a vision from the Holy Spirit in a dream, revealing the location of an illegal firearm at the home of her relative, Vincent Emodo.
True to her claim, Nyapendi led police to Emodo’s house, where they discovered a gun hidden under his bed, leading to his arrest.
“The information was provided by Nyapendi Josephine, who stated that she was guided by the Holy Spirit, prompting her to reveal the presence of the firearm to Onyapidi Alfonse, who was praying at the time,” the police spokesperson explained.
During the search, officers recovered an SMG with ammunition. “A further search in Emodo Vincent’s home uncovered a magazine containing 29 bullets,” the spokesperson added.
Emodo had attempted to flee to evade arrest when the weapon was discovered, but police apprehended him on October 27, 2024.
