In the peaceful village of Rakai, Uganda, a wave of fear swept through like a dark cloud. Rumors, born from doubt and stoked by hysteria, painted a horrifying picture of cannibalism. At the center of these accusations was a local man named Asafu. As panic spread, villagers turned on each other, and a witch hunt began, driven by baseless rumors.

This ordeal brought immense psychological trauma to Asafu and his family. The false accusations, public shaming, and imprisonment shattered their lives. The resulting fear, suspicion, and exclusion cast a long shadow over the entire community. What was once a harmonious village became fractured, with deep mistrust and anxiety affecting everyone.
