SOME ARE DIGGING UP THE REMAINS DEAD BODIES MANY YEARS AGO, BECAUSE THE TRADITIONAL DOCTOR TOLD THEM THAT THE DECEASED IS ONE TO BLAME FOR THEIR ILLNESS REGARDLESS WHETHER THEY WERE THEIR MOTHER OR FATHER. SOME TANZANIANS BELIEVE, WESTERN SCIENCE TO BE IRRELEVANT TO EVERYDAY MISERY AND SUFFERING OF INDIVIDUALS AND THEIR FAMILIES’ THEY COMMENT ON BY SAYING SCIENCE CAN NOT PROVE ANYTHING ABOUT AFRICANS. IT IS GOT TO DO WITH PLANETS, THE WHOLE UNIVERSE AND DIGITAL IMAGING. THE HEALER WHO CAN THROW THE BONES TO DIVINE THE NATURE OF THE PERSON’S PROBLEMS, CREATED BY WITCH, IS FAR MORE POWERFUL WHEN IT COMES TO PROVING THINGS ABOUT SELF. THIS OUTDATED BELIEF HAS FUELED THE SPREAD OF ALBINO AND ELDERLY WOMEN KILLINGS IN TANZANIA.
