Everyone possesses a natural talent, but some individuals have talents that are truly extraordinary. Ali is one such person, and his unique abilities have led to his isolation by the people in his village, who accuse him of being a witch and bringing bad luck.
Ali, a 62-year-old man living in Tanzania, has the uncanny ability to predict people’s deaths, including the exact day and manner in which they will die. Unfortunately, all of the deaths he has foretold have come to pass, which has caused alarm among the villagers, leading them to distance themselves from him.
Ali insists that he is not a witch, but rather someone with an inexplicable gift that allows him to foresee how and when people will die. He claims that it is easy for him to look at someone and know when their time will come. In an interview with Afrimax English, a few villagers who know Ali well confirmed that he has indeed accurately predicted the deaths of several people in the village. This has led to his isolation, and there have even been discussions among the villagers about driving him away.
